I am a compulsive 'best by' date checker. The whole thing just makes me nervous, especially with foods that (to me) ALWAYS taste off. Like milk. But here I am, having worked 3 nights in a row, eating a sammich with bread that was 'best by' two days ago. It's not stale or moldy and I haven't been able to get to the grocery to replace it. I know I won't die from bread, but really, what's the leeway on those dates?

As long as the bread isn't moldy or hard, it's fine.

It's still fine.
Me and my bf fight about this one all the time. He thinks it's conspiracy to get people to buy more.
I think the cows whisper to the farmer when they're being milked, "July 22nd" Little Jerry Sienfeld there.
