REFLECTION QUESTION
Food, Agriculture, and Land Use

Knowing the difference between "use by," "sell by," and "best by" dates empowers me to make smarter choices about my food. The "use by" date helps me prioritize safety, ensuring I consume items before they go bad. The "sell by" date gives me insight into freshness, allowing me to buy products that are still good even if they’re past that date.
