Created by M.E. on July 24, 2013

It should be required that by January 1st, 2015 any perishable product or product that requires a dated label whether it's brought into the United States or is of The United States will have proper expiration dates. All dates shall be properly coded in month, day and year in easy to read numerical display and is color coded in bright outstanding colors in clear view on the front label. Clear coding will be established for convenience and safety of the consumer. This practice should allow the grocer to provide a quality product by removing products that could become harmful from their ingestion or use.
