Title: Re: Why is it that . . . Post by: Ironside on January 23, 2017, 10:21:18 PM Why is the expiry date on a packet of crisps is always on a Saturday?
In the manufacturing sites we work on production weeks which start on a Sunday. All product produced in that week will have the same Best Before date. As the week ends on the Saturday, the Best Before date will always end on a Saturday. Title: Re: Why is it that . . .
