What about date labelling?
Best before dates are a marker of quality, this means that the food might still be OK to eat even if the date has passed.
Use - by dates are a marker of safety, this means that any food out of its use by date must be thrown away.
We accept food passed its best before by date, but we will NEVER accept food passed its use by date.
Always check the date labels when you are using the community fridge incase someone has made an error.
