Speak UP

If you feel like you’re not being heard keep speaking. If one door closes, three will open…. If there is no well to drink from, dig until you create one. -Tiara Hughes

 Etiquette Lessons: Shoes off

Know Your Dates

Confusion about expiration labels is the reason more then 80% of Americans discard perfectly good food that they fear may make them sick. In general food is safe to consume if signs of spoilage – such as unpleasant odor , flavor or textures aren’t present. Exceptions : informant formula, which should be consumed by the “use by” date and sometimes meat.

Best if Used By/Before: This date indicates when a product will have the best flavor or best quality, but it does mean the food will be unsafe to consume past that date.

Sell By: This is for inventory management, so it tells the store how long to display the product for sale , but it doesn’t relate to food safety.

Freeze By: To maintain peak quality. Freeze by this date but once the food is frozen, you can enjoy it for weeks or months to come.
