Is “Best Before” A Suggestion Or A Rule For You?

My kids think “best before” is a Golden Rule and would never think of trying milk or other groceries once they’ve hit that date.

I take is as a guide. Everything gets a “sniff test” and if it smells good I consume it.

However, some things don’t have a “best before” date.

Take home sushi from a restaurant gets chucked the next day.

That’s one chance I’m not going to take.

Is the “best before” date a rule or a suggestion for you?
