The best before date is about quality and not safety. The food will be safe to eat after this date but may not be at its best. Its flavour and texture might not be as good as before!!!! 7 Likes 1 Share |

I think there is a difference between Expired and best before, for example food is best served hot or warm that doesn't mean it is bad when served cold. Eat your macaroni nothing will happen, but if paraventure you die Nairaland will blame Buhari and you will be forgotten the next day. Jeeez I just bought lacasera for N120 in area 1 abuja |

Chai ! In today Nigerian ? My brother, you are doing well ! When you see best before a certain date, it means that you will enjoy it with the original manufactured quality and taste intact. But anything after then , you MIGHT not have that quality completely intact but it has not expired. But atleast , wouldn’t be too healthy consuming after 2 or three months after, depending on the type of products. By experience and advice by professionals |

Dat2Jo Hello Nairalanders. So my father in-law who happens to be a politician just sent in some food itema among the covid-19 palliatives they hoarded. I just noticed that among the items, 5 cartons of indomie and 5 cartons of Honeywell Macaroni both carry a 'best before date' of 2mnts ago (1st June 2021 and 3rd June 2021 respectively). How safe will it be for us to consume them? Or should we just dispose them off? Thankshow do you feel when they are insulting palliative thieves knowing fully well that your father is one of those causing hardship on people. 3 Likes |

Dat2jo:u can eat it and nothing will happen. Food pass through best before, better, good then before spoilage unlike drugs that have expiry date. |

Most food items have an extra 6 months after BB. Although many factors such as storage, temperature, humidity determine. My bet, chop brother nothing dey happen. Spices like that used in indomie have a shelf life of up to 5 years, they don't get spoilt, only loose flavour 4 Likes |

Any food item should have a six-month extension after the stated expiry date. But my question is: Can you consume it in six months? Was it prepared with the right materials that can guarantee the after-life cycle? Are you sure it's original and not fake? better safe than sorry. |

Safe! That is why "best by" date is used and not "expired by". "Best by" date is about quality and not safety |

Best before is different from expiry date. Best best means the quality is no longer best after the date. Quality would have dropped or reduced but it is still safe to consume. Just that you won't get that top quality again. However, expiry means it isn't safe for consumption anymore. Even at at, expiry date still has 3 months of Grace period after which if you take it, you are on your own and your creator... In conclusion, you can boldly go on to consume them except if it is visible bad... 2 Likes |

MejiLoyon:my own inlaws would shock you. Imagine asking two full adults if they are feeding well. After my wedding, my wife and I were young but were not jobless. They would call and ask, “ hope you guys are eating WELL”. I could remember one occasion they sent us 400k , I no ask o. After every every, everything was like 900k then o . I had to tell my wife never ever receive anything from them o. She would ask me , are they not my parents? Who are they still taking care of? We have all graduated, what would they be doing with their money? I just weak. |

Dat2jo: It's still safe for consumption. I remember in one of the late Dora video clips expired items, she said " foods can still be consumed even after atleast 3 months of its expiry date" |
