- California bans 'sell by' dates on food packaging, replacing them with standardized freshness and safety labels from July 2026.
- The new labels are 'Best if Used By' for peak quality and 'Use By' for product safety, reducing shopper confusion significantly.
- This legislation targets the reduction of about 6 million tons of edible food discarded yearly in California, lowering environmental impact.
- Other states like New York have adopted similar laws, while federal lawmakers are considering a nationwide food label standard.
We don't need to build some kind of huge infrastructure and invest tons of money to solve this. We just need companies to use the same words across brands.— Nick Lapis, director of advocacy at Californians Against Waste, on standardizing date labels to reduce food waste.
