[@vanessagoddess1]

agree, the pillows one is the most absurd 🤪🤔🤷‍♀

[@melissabarrett9750]

If the filling is Dacron, it can go bad after about five years. That's why it's a good idea not to stockpile pillows and only go out and buy new ones if you are going to be using them within days of purchase. Always replace pillows about every three years. They build up a massive amount of body oil and bacterial and dust mites over a few years, even when you wash them. You can kill the mites, but they're still decomposing in the fibres.

[@OrWhatWeHave]

If your pillow is 5 years old, about 25% of its weight is now dust mites and human cells 🤢

In other countries, it's pretty clear what expiry dates are, when we moved here here Down Under, I had to research what's the difference between Best Before and Use by By! 😄

[@melissabarrett9750]

Best before lose most of their nutritional value or flavour from after the best before date. Foods with a use by date, actually become less safe to eat and you risk food poisoning. This is pretty much how it works.

yeah i saw a expiry date on "Himalayan salt" and was like...wtf !? Also like...C vitamin tablets and some medication and chemicals...

[@Cheesus-Sliced]

It was more than likely best before dates, and if not then it was because the plastic containers they are stored in degrade over time and leech chemicals into everything they have contact with.

[@melissabarrett9750]

Medications can become very toxic after their expiry date. Good idea to dispose of them the day before or return them to a pharmacy for disposal. They incinerate them.

[@Cheesus-Sliced]

@@melissabarrett9750 they don't usually become toxic, so much as becoming ineffective. Toxicity usually comes from the packaging, if it's particularly volatile, like epipens. The epinephrine itself is fine, but chemicals in the plastic seep into it over time, which is why they store many times the actual dose in each autoinjector, so it lasts longer before reaching an unsafe concentration.

[@melissalambert3400]

Oh, I thought the date only referred to the packaging 😣😉'cause that's where the date always is. 😕

[@melissabarrett9750]

Sometimes manufacturers will put date of manufacture or packed dates on items. This can help to make them identifiable as part of a batch if there's a toxicity scare on that product, eg:contaminated during manufacture. Then the product can usually be returned for a replacement from a different batch or a refund.

@Curtis Millar If your bread bag has a square plastic neck tag, the Best Before Date is printed on that. I don't think your local bakery bothers with dates. We all know when bread goes dry and stale, or has green mould spots. Your more expensive, specialty bread is often packed in a brown paper + cello bag. The Best Before Date is usually printed on the Ingredients sticker. This is one of many reasons older people keep a magnifying glass 🔎 in the kitchen drawer - so they can read the bl**dy fine print.

In my younger days my Pop used to make them for us on our way home from school by just running them under hot water, I'm not sure what preventives they contained, but I'm guessing all of them & any used by date was thrown away when you remover the paper covering them & ate them cold from the inner plastic bag.
