Don't misunderstand the expiry date

Forty percent of the US food supply is thrown away uneaten every year because of expired food dates, but a new report from the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) and Harvard suggests that most of that food is still safe to eat.1

Labels like ‘use by’ and ‘sell by’ on foods aren’t actually an indicator of food safety, as many believe them to be, and, the report found, more than 90 percent of Americans are throwing out food prematurely because of misunderstandings of what food dates actually mean.

Bush and Dennis Tompkins, the late Michael Jackson filed the patent in 1993 detailing the rather complex design of a shoe with a specially design heel slot.
