California Becomes First State to Standardize Food Date Labels

Original: California Standardizes Food Date Labels: The First Statewide Mandate and What's Next

California has enacted the first statewide mandate standardizing food date labels, a move expected to reduce consumer confusion over phrases like 'best by' and 'sell by' and cut down on unnecessary food waste. Food industry and nutrition observers are watching closely to see how manufacturers comply and whether other states follow California's lead with similar requirements.

Why now: It is the first statewide law of its kind, raising questions about food waste and whether other states will adopt similar rules.
