The point is that just because the best-before date is a year from now doesn't erase the fact that one item on the store shelf is a month older than another identical one.
- dylan604 3y agowhat does it say about the store you are at that has food that has dates that far apart? most products are received at the store from the factory from the same batch which means sameish dates. so how do the dates on the products vary that much on the shelf unless some gamesmanship is being done somewhere.
- sokoloff 3y agoIf peanut butter comes in cases of 24 that are in pallets of 144 cases and is delivered every month to the regional distribution center, many stores will have both the month and ++month product on the shelf at the same time. The alternative is to be frequently out of stock.
- watwut 3y agoIt just says that they restocked half empty shelf with newer stuff. The factory is not sending new batches every day. Month apart on something that is valid for years is oftentimes how they are spaced.
