Read this before you throw out your milk.
We’ve all had that moment while staring at a carton of eggs, a tub of yogurt, or a can of beans, wondering if it’s safe to eat even past the date stamped on the bottom of the package. It can be difficult to calculate if something is"safe" to consume, yet it is one of the most important decisions you make when eating perishable products. With that dilemma in mind, we put together this guide on food safety to explain food quality dating with the help of Argyris K.
The exception is infant formula, which is required to have a “Use-By” date that must be consumed before this date to ensure the quantity of nutrients is the same as specified on the label, as specified under federal regulations.Magoulas says that there are two types of dating that may appear on a product label – open and closed dating. A product's "open date" is a calendar date applied by the manufacturer or retailer indicating the item’s “peak quality” time.
This often appears as codes that consist of a series of letters and/or numbers applied by manufacturers to identify the date and time of production, appearing as MMDDYY. For example, "112922" would be read as November 29, 2022.In the U.S., there isn't a uniform or universally-accepted way to describe quality dates on food labels.
A "Sell-By" date is just a way for the store to keep track of inventory, which can be irrelevant to the consumer.

The authors — experts in the resistance to social-change efforts — write that the key to overcoming resistance to any effort is figuring out why people are resisting. When it comes to DEI initiatives, they argue, people resist because they experience at least one of three forms of threat: status threat, merit threat, and moral threat. Depending on the kinds of threat they experience, they then tend to engage in three kinds of resistance: defending, denying, and distancing. The authors explain these forms of threat and resistance and then offer suggestions for how to overcome them.
