Summary
California’s new food date law, Assembly Bill 660, goes into effect July 1st, slashing confusion and food waste by simplifying labels to just “BEST if Used by” and “USE by.” With millions of perfectly good meals tossed yearly — enough to feed 2.5 billion people — this change aims to empower consumers to trust their senses, not labels, and cut landfill waste by nearly half. A small tweak with big potential to reshape how we eat and waste. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
