The “Use By Date” on food packaging indicates the last date the product should be consumed for safety reasons. It is based on scientific testing and analysis conducted by the manufacturer to ensure the product is safe until that date. Consuming the product after the “Use By Date” may pose health risks due to potential bacterial growth and spoilage.
