Food

How does knowing the difference between use by, sell by, and best by dates empower you to make better decisions?
Keri Fong 4/15/2019 2:30 PM
Differentiating between use by, sell by, and best by dates provides more clarification as to when food items are still good, should be used soon, or discarded. It helps individuals better plan out their meals with the materials they have available; and therefore, less wasted products in the end.

I have tried to group recyclable items together to take them down altogether and just the thought that sometimes I throw them down the trash chute out of pure laziness makes me want to make a change.
