In this webinar, Spoonfuls and the Harvard Law School Food Law and Policy Clinic will bust the persistent myths around “expiration dates” on food, and set the record straight. We’ll discuss:

• The origins of food date labeling, including how a lack of federal regulation and the resulting state patchwork of date label legislation, causes consumer confusion and, more importantly, significant food waste.
• The impacts of that wasted food – on people, the planet, and on your wallet! – and what attendees need to know to make decisions about date labels on food in their home, using Spoonfuls’ own guidelines as a resource.
• The current policy landscape around improving date label standards and opportunities to support those efforts.
