This means the ingredient present in the largest amount is listed first, followed by those in decreasing amounts. This practice helps consumers understand the composition of the product and make informed choices. 6 Dangerous bacteria (like Listeria or Salmonella) can grow without noticeable changes in smell, taste, or appearance after the "Use By" date. 7 The "Best Before" date refers to the period when the product is at its peak quality, not its safety. Canned goods (e.g., vegetables, soups) and dry goods (e.g., pasta, rice) often remain safe to eat long after this date, provided they have been stored properly and the packaging is intact. 8 "Use By" focuses on food safety and indicates the last date the product is safe to consume while "Best Before" emphasizes quality, referring to when the product is at its best in terms of taste and texture, though it may still be safe after this date.
