تاريخ انتهاء الجودة/الطزاجة/النكهة
Best before" dates appear on a wide range of frozen, dried, tinned and other foods.
Except in the case of eggs, "best before" dates are about quality, not safety. When the date is passed, it doesn't mean that the food will be harmful, but it might begin to lose its flavor and texture.

Kindly colleagues be noticed that this date "best before" has no relation with Expiry Date, it talks about freshness of food.
