Difference Between Expiry Date And Best Before Date by JeffreyJamez(m): 1:50pm On Jul 29, 2015 |
Many people don’t know that expiry date and best before date are not the same. In fact, many people use them interchangeably thinking that they mean the same thing. Well, let me use this medium to inform you that expiry date and best before date are two different terminologies meaning different things and serving different purposes.

Buhari has reach Best Before date... After his first 100 days, he has reached expiry date and as d OP said, no longer useful. Bottom line... Make hay while the sun shines. The 'change' we've experienced so far isn't positive at all. 31 Likes 1 Share |

Most times when we walk into big malls, boutiques, supermarkets, we never question their prices. We pay exactly what we see on the price tags and even hand out tips to the staff. But the moment we are out of these shops and want tobuy banana, our bargaining game gets off to the roof. . Poor widow with 12 hungry children at home tells you banana is N100. She even takes out her time to explain how difficult it wasfor her to even buy it, how the economy is so tough. But we insist that if it's not N50, we are not paying. Some of us even step back into our cars and make to drive away. . But because 'half bread is better chin chin', this woman is forced to call you back and sell to you at little or no gain. In her heart, she cries, she's worried about how she'll survive with her children. She silently reassures herself that 'It's well. God will definitely provide.'' While you happily chop the luscious banana. . Take some seconds out and think about this, guys. Please don't bargain hard with small vendors like this. They do business not to buy designer bags, Gucci shoes but to LIVE and EAT! Have a luvly week ahead. 107 Likes 17 Shares |

I swear I'm guilty of taking the two terminologies to mean the same thing. I feel like turning back the hands of time so I can get to recover all the beverages I've been throwing away as a result of this gross ignorance. But trust me . I ain't gonna disclose this to my friends. I'm gonna use this piece of information to my advantage . You understand that right? 5 Likes |

Some items has just 'manufactured date'. This leaves consumers with not enough information to start guessing what the expiry date will be. A good example is 'tyres' 1 Like

@op, you are right bt you know when you give Nigerians chance they will take chances. To be on a safer side, once it has 'expired' or past its 'best before' please, do not consume. Take alcoholic drinks for example, there is a probability that the enzymes used in its fermentation must have gained full strength after its best before and this can harm the consumer if taken. 1 Like |
