Sell By - Use By - Best By - Freeze By - You Could Die
Depending on where you live, you may see different dates on your food and each has a different purpose. Here’s a bit of clarity based on information from the Institute of Food Technologists (IFT) and FSIS.2
- Best If Used By/Before: This is a quality assurance date and serves as a “suggestion” for when the taste and quality of food are at their peak. It is not a purchase or safety date.
- Use By: This is the suggested date by when you should eat the food. But just because it’s a day or two past the use-by date doesn’t mean that consuming it will make you sick, although you should evaluate the quality of the food yourself after this time. It is not a safety date, except when used on infant formula.
- Sell By: This is not a safety date, but rather a date for retailers that helps them determine how long an item should remain on the shelf. According to the IFT, “one-third of a product’s shelf-life remains after the sell-by date for the consumer to use at home.”2
- Freeze By: According to the USDA, this date indicates when a product should be frozen to maintain peak quality. It is not a purchase or safety date.
