Some food items have "use by" dates, others have "sell by" dates. If an item has a "sell by" date, how many days after that date is it still good?
Normally I use the item w/in a day or 2 of the sell by date, but I currently have beef shoulder rib steak carne asada that has been in the fridge & has a "sell by" date of Sunday (today is Thurs), is it still ok to use?
Also, what is your source of info ... how do you know your answer/info is correct?
I mainly need to know about the beef right now, but how about safe dates after "sell by" date for dairy products, lunch meats, leftovers?
