Is that “Best By” date on your food a safety rule or a giant lie? For decades, we’ve been throwing away perfectly good food—and money—because of a massive misunderstanding about expiration dates. In this video, we expose the shocking truth: most of the dates on your food have nothing to do with safety and are not regulated by the government.
This Week’s Deep Dive
We’ll break down what “Best By,” “Sell By,” and “Use By” *actually* mean (hint: they’re not the same). You’ll discover the one and only food product with a federally regulated safety date and learn why this confusing system was created in the first place—a system that benefits manufacturer profits over your wallet and the planet.
Join us as we uncover the real-world consequences of food waste and arm you with the ultimate food safety tool you already own: your senses. Learn how long common foods *really* last and which exceptions you need to know to keep your family safe. It’s time to stop trusting the date and start trusting yourself.
Stop throwing your money in the trash! Watch now to reclaim your kitchen and slash your grocery bill.

Peter has been growing microgreens at home during the spring and summer. Some varieties of brassicas survived the first frost last fall. Growing them at home in trays is a simple and economical way of having fresh microgreens available. Peter plants a few seeds of the faster-growing plants each week and every second week for the slower ones like Basil and Cilantro. His favourites are: Arugula, basil, beets, cilantro, cress, peas, radish and spinach. Cut and mixed together, they make a delicious and nutritious salad.
