  • Some much food gets thrown away needlessly as many do not understand this simple principle. Apeel has good information.

    Expiration dates don’t necessarily mean the date by which your food is no longer good. In most cases, they are only the dates by which quality (taste, texture) can no longer be guaranteed. The best judge of whether or not your food is still good to eat? Your own judgment. ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Use common sense, nature’s gut check:⁠⁠ 👀 Does it look ok?⁠⁠ 👃 Does it smell ok?⁠⁠ 👄 Does it taste ok?⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ If the answer is yes to all three, you’re most likely in the clear. For more information on “expiration” dates and some tips on what to do with aging produce, check out our blog: https://lnkd.in/g-_e92Yh
