We all like to believe that our grocery stores pack the newest and freshest foods. But in reality, their stock can have flaws. Whenever you grocery shop, always check the expiration date of every food item you buy.
The grocery store personnel will stock the freshest items in the back of the shelf or at the bottom of the pile. They rotate the items by always pulling food to the front before re-stocking. The food in the front may even be expired or near expiration. Save money by checking the expiration dates to ensure that the food you keep at your home lasts as long as possible.
And on the contrary, if you are buying food that is going to be consumed that day or the next day, buy items that expire immediately.
