Did you know...? Food doesn't really have an "expiration" date. If the food is unopened, smells and looks good, it's perfectly safe to eat! Infant formula and baby food are the only food products with true "expiration" dates. All other dates are "best by" or "use by" dates based on when the manufacturer thinks the product will taste best. During , help us stop food waste - if you have unopened food at home you know you won't eat, don't throw it away! Donate it to your local pantry or to the Food Bank.
