More "puzzled" than confused. How/why does something like a packet of biscuits have such a specific "Best before" date on it? Just opened some chocolate digestives with BB 14/01/17 on them. I mean, I get "BB end of..." dates, and a specific date for something fresh that will be stale in three days, but choccy biccies?
They'll not taste as good after the BB date & will gradually start to go stale.
What like a switch is hit on that specific day?
That was the point I was making, CE takes it more literally than me I guess...
“Best before” dates appear on foods that have a longer shelf life, such as biscuits, crisps and dried pulses. They indicate how long the food will be at its best quality for. Eating food past its “best before” date is unlikely to be harmful.
When my 16 year old sister (half my own age) uses such words as "fleek", "lit", "on point" and "sick" - What does it all mean?!?! Surely I'm not past it already with our English language
Why, when I have just updated a password on the internet do I immediately have to log-in again? They know it's me, they just let me change my password.
How on earth do they calculate train prices? I just had to book tickets for a work trip to Manchester. A day return was priced at £300, but by doing an overnighter and booking two singles the price drops to £80. Madness.

Use before is about safety
