I don't get it. The gelatin is simply mixed to go off after a set number of days. How is that better than a label with a date on it?

- necrobrit 12y ago> you’d measure how many days they’d last at the optimum temperature and match the gelatine formula so it would also last the same amount. Because the gelatin will also respond to sub-optimal temperatures and spoil faster. Presumably this means you could reasonably set the gelatin tag to the actual point of spoilage for the product -- rather than the 'peak freshness' current 'use-by' dates usually represent.
- AndrewDucker 12y agoAaah, that makes sense! If it spoils faster in the heat, that would affect both. Thank you!
