Update

I went and searched my trash and found the candy bar wrapper.  Faintly printed on the seam was the "Best by" date of 4-15-22.  This candy bar was 1 and 1/2 years past the Best By date.

Look for Sell By and Use By dates on all food items you are about to purchase.

Why?Town

I hate when that happens.

But maybe it wasn't on the shelf a very long time. Maybe that particular bar had fallen under the shelf a very long time ago and was found by an employee that put it back on the shelf with all its friends the day before you bought it.

FYI

Be aware when shopping in small neighborhood stores.  Some of the packaged food items may have been on the shelves for a very long time.

I purchased a chocolate candy bar the other day and it was stale.  It was dried out and very hard to bite.
