just found this.........so fuct it im eatin em
Example: "Sell by May 16"
Look for this date on refrigerated foods such as milk, yogurt, cottage cheese, cream, eggs, luncheon meat, and packaged salad mixes.
This means the store must take the refrigerated foods off the shelf by the date listed. If the food has been kept refrigerated at the proper temperature, it will still be safe to eat for 3 to 7 days after the pull date. Do not use it if it smells bad, has obvious mold or yeast growth, or the seal is broken.
