Best before

Solo conozco “Fecha de caducidad: xx.xx.xxxx” pero me parece más amable, “consumir mejor antes de: xx.xx.xxxx” porque no cuela que si la caducidad fue ayer, hoy ya no valga. Otro termino estamos odiando: “Obsolescencia programada”. Antes se tenía como un honor producir para que durase toda la vida, los relojes suizos eran paradigmáticos. Nos han imbuido en el “usar y tirar” y nadie controla al control de calidad.

Nice photo. Seems to be universal now. Even children's car seats expire here.

Have a good day and a good week.

I have read that people have opened cans from years ago and the content is still OK! I suppose it has to be stated, but I just use my nose and common sense as to whether fresh or canned food is still alright to consume! In interesting picture and question George.

The can as an artwork !

In the US we have "Best before", "Use before", and "Sell before". I think for other than perishables there is "Expiration date".

In Canada it's "Best before/Meilleur avant".

Great question .. :-))

HMM

bonne idée de focaliser sur les inscriptions ; j'ai failli choisir la même

GEORGE

I SAN ONLY VOUCH FOR ENGLAND AND USA BEING THE SAME

Great capture, George! In Germany it' s called the "Mindesthaltbarkeitsdatum" (MHD).

Mein Verfallsdatum ist noch nicht freigegeben

Bis dahin ist noch viel Zeit. Und nach dem Datum schmeckt es trotzdem noch.

Excellent capture! Stay well!
