Ever cleaned out your fridge and tossed something the second you spotted a past date on the package? Apparently, you might be throwing away perfectly good food. According to food safety specialists, most labels that say, “Best By” . . . “Best Before” . . . and “Enjoy By”, are meant to tell you when a product will be at its best quality . . . not when it suddenly becomes unsafe to eat. Researchers found more than 50 different date labels are used across the U.S., which helps explain why it’s so confusing.
