Listen "Keep or Toss?? Settling the debate over food label dates Ep. 9"
Episode Synopsis
“Use before,” “Sell by,” “Expires on,” “Best if used by” -- What do they all mean? And if you pass that date printed on the label, do you have to throw it out immediately? These labels may be doing more harm than good as American are throwing out a third of our food. That's about $161 billion worth each year. Joining the conversation is Kevin Smith, a Senior Advisor in the FDA's Office of Food Safety. He explains what these labels mean, how they are determined and what you can do to cut down on food waste in your home.
