261- Best before

Show notes

Most of us are very used to the concept of ‘Use By Dates’ or ‘Best Before Dates’ when we go shopping but many commercial outdoor foods also come with these labels. Due to COVID I ended up with a large number of ‘out of date’ meals and thought that I’d see how they went. Are these labels just cautionary recommendations or can you just ignore them?
