Use By Date (DLC): Use by… = You cannot eat the product after this date.
Another example: On the same day, right after enjoying some Chocs étoilés, you’re a bit thirsty so you grab a carton of fresh milk from the fridge, it says: Use by 08/08/2022. The date has passed, you can no longer drink this milk, a large glass of water will do ;)
Not so complicated once it’s well explained, is it? Especially when you know that 10% of European food waste comes from confusion over expiry dates… It’s also for this reason that Agathe, driven by her desire to reduce food waste, has partnered with her anti-waste partner Too Good To Go by signing the Date Labeling Pact. We'll tell you more in a future article…
Biscuits to enjoy at your own pace!
Do you also get mixed up (hello, Oranneigées) between the different consumption dates indicated on packaging? Best Before, Use By… it’s not always easy to keep track!
So, to avoid wasting these delicious biscuits (and lots of other good Swiss products), Agathe is taking the lead with an explanation to read while enjoying 3 biscuits, quick!
You’ll see, understanding consumption dates is a piece of cake! Or rather… a biscuit!
Best Before Date (DDM): Best before… = You can eat it after the date!
Let’s take an example: On August 15th, you come back from vacation and have a strong craving for Chocs étoilés to cheer yourself up. It says on the package: Best before 08/01/2022. The date has passed, but you can still enjoy them. Happy tasting ;)
