Last weekend I finished off a carton 3 weeks past the “best by” date. They were still good, and tasted the same as any other normal egg. Not farm fresh, but fine. They last a lot longer than the date on the carton says.
That article is pretty straightforward. It’s aiming to decrease food waste, increase an in demand food item at food pantries, and presents little risk because bad eggs are easy to identify. All in all it seems like a positive development.
Homeless and hungry people or financially strapped people with a home want things they can readily eat. I’ve already explained how the egg expiration process works.
Sell-By dates can also be used as a measurement for retailers to gauge when something is to expire by, especially perishables, such as baked pastries. They need to sell it by a certain date which is usually before the product expires. If they can’t and the product is close to expiring, guess what? It’s gotta go. That’s how they work, as a retailer.
Besides, you’ve never gone to food shelves or food banks, have you? Bet not, because you’re sounding entitled with your stupid comment. There will be some, not all, but some food banks and food shelves that will end up giving expired food to people in need. It is unintentionally inhumane to do and I wish they would stop doing that practice. As well as there is not enough public outcry to make retailers and whatnot reconsider their practices but then again, on a retailer’s point of view, they don’t want to be liable for making anyone sick or anything else.
I’d also know because I stock shit and I’m responsible for having to take things like dented cans because why would anyone reasonably buy a dented can much less, donate it? Liability is a thing and I’d rather be safe than sorry.
So you can take that comment and fucking shove it. Shows what your ass knows.
Gross. I think the hungry and needy deserve better than that.

If the US didn’t wash them, they’d stay good at room temp for well over a month.
It’s not expiration date.

These aren’t rotten eggs
It’s the point of the message.
