best before/expiration date

[crazy_boy]

I heard even medicines can be taken X months after expiration. The effectivity is lessened lang.

pag medicine, hindi na siya effective pag past expiry date na.

QA and R&D assures that the BBD is safe. But hindi pa nga sira yan, meron pa din buffer just to be sure, mga 1 month usually. Pero don't take chance na siyempre.

Pag lagpas na daw ng best before eh hindi na sya best, better na lang.

Nestle keeps a product of every batch in room temperature, and warm room usually for 15 months.

i hear that for some products, the actual expiration is months pa after the indicated date; naninigurado lang siguro.

But i'm curious as to how food companies determine/test the best before/expiration date...alangan naman hayaan na lang magkaamag ^_^

yung mga opismeyts kong noong food tech, sila magcoconduct ng tests kung hanggang kelan magtatagal yung food, que exposed or in any kind of packaging.

tapos ayun na.

parang sa bakery yan, yung mga tinapay recorded na nila kung hanggang kelan bago mag molds. so alam na nila storage life ng bread. sa safe period nila nilalagay yung expiry date like one day or two days prior molding.

ayun na. sa beer napansin ko naglalasa na siyang almost tubig pag nag expire na.

bakit sa mga underwear pag expired na nagiging pagkain?

yung brief nagbi-bacon?

sa panty naman nangangamoy tuyo o daing?

ikaw badkuk andami mong problema. mangangayayat ka niyan. kain lang ng kain.

The methods for measuring shelf-life is different across different kinds and types of products. But the majority of products are affected one way or the other by temperature. That is how they estimate Best Before or Expiry Dates.

Notice that for most of these products, they have an indication about how it should be stored. Ex. Store at room temperature, or refrigerated, or away from direct sunlight, etc. They can accelerate the spoilage process by subjecting it to different temps and use the results to approximate the expiration date based on how a consumer typically store the product or base it under the assumption that the consumer followed the instruction on the proper way to store the product.

Simply put, they can't wait three or five years to determine how their product would turn out. They may still do this method but only AFTER the product has been out on the market for maybe months/years. They would then use these results to adjust the dates on the new batches accordingly.

Pag gusto niyo tumagal ang product, lagay niyo lang sa freezer, kahit 1-2 years lampas expiration okay pa =))
