[quote=Anonymous]I'm kind of nutty about food safety and my husband thinks I take expiration dates too seriously. Can anyone point me to a reputable source on this topic? I'm interested in knowing the difference between "sell by" and "use by" and how many days after "sell by" you get. How many days can things stay open in the fridge, for example: salsa, cream cheese, creamy salad dressings, lunchmeat, shredded cheese If you pull something out of the freezer to defrost, like bacon, and only use half the pack, how quickly do you need to cook and eat the other half that is defrosted but not cooked? I have lots more questions, but I'll start with that. :) [/quote]
