sell-by date
A sell-by date is a date marked on a perishable product, such as food or drinks, indicating the recommended last date the product should be sold by a retailer. It serves as a guideline for stores to ensure that there is still some shelf life left for consumers once they purchase the item. However, it does not mean that the product is unsafe to use or consume after this date, it only may not be at its highest level of quality.
