Required by law. Even the honey has an expiration date, I supposedly have to eat mine within the next two weeks. However, the use of common sense is not (yet) prohibited.

Flour can certainly go bad. It then smells rancid and no longer fine. I'm glad the flour has a best-before date on it, so I can regularly check that nothing is going bad. If the flour has "expired", I smell it and if it still smells good, I use it anyway. It would be worse if there were crawling pests in the flour. Then, unfortunately, you have to dispose of it. I remedy this by putting my flour in airtight boxes. Also rice, flakes and lentils. Anyone who has ever had dried fruit moths at home knows why😅 And if you still think that you don't need a date on the flour, then don't look at it. But yes, you probably don't need it for sugar. But it will be a requirement.
Hi Wetter1972, thank you for your question. curley is right: According to the applicable food regulations, all packaged foods must bear a best-before date. In the case of flour and sugar, this is a best-before date (BBD). The best-before date on long-life foods is to be understood as a recommendation - adherence to it guarantees optimum quality. If stored for a longer period of time, a reduction in quality must be expected (taste, appearance, consistency, etc.). From a health point of view, it is generally safe to consume food even after the best-before date has expired. How long a product can still be consumed after the best-before date depends on the product, so it is not possible to make a general recommendation. Sugar, for example, has a practically unlimited shelf life. Otherwise, we recommend the Yoliboli procedure. Rely on your sense of smell and taste. And very important: if in doubt, dispose of the product. Best regards, Chloe
