Date label tips<br />

TIP: Date labels can be confusing,<br />

but the only one worth noting is<br />

the “Use By” date. Food can be<br />

eaten or frozen right up to the<br />

end of the “use by” date.<br />

TIP: Look out for “previously frozen”<br />

labels on meat and fish. Remember<br />

that meat can ONLY be safely frozen<br />

twice, so if your product is previously<br />

frozen, make sure not to end up<br />

with leftovers.<br />

TIP: “Best Before” dates are only<br />

indicators of optimum freshness.<br />

While sandwich bread has a “Best<br />

Before” date, do use or freeze it<br />

quickly before it goes mouldy.<br />

TIP: “Sell By” and “Display Until”<br />

dates can be ignored as they are for<br />

shop staff, not for shoppers.<br />
