REFLECTION QUESTIONFood Learn the Truth About Expiration DatesHow does knowing the difference between use by, sell by, and best by dates empower you to make better decisions?
Saira Bano 4/01/2020 8:06 PMNext time when i will buy products i will try to concentrate on more on best by and use by dates. I didn't knew the about the differences clearly but now i know it. It will help me to buy products that have more lifeline and what is the best time to use the product, next time i won't buy the products with looking about it. In this way i will save the product too and will use it in the best time too.
