A puzzling question..

[3dog14]

Well.. I woke up to make some cereal this lovely morning, and the milk said it expires on April 1st... was it trying to trick me?

Funny answer: Yes.
Srs: No, companies aren't allowed to risk the health of the public.

Well, so does McDonalds. But you don't see them getting sued anymore.

Nothing puzzling about it.

They have to put a date on there for expiry purposes and the 1st of April just happens to be that date. Same when it's the other 364 days of the year used on various milk cartons and other food items.

You had to have your bowl of cereal? Because it's Friday, Friday gotta get down on Friday.

I'm referring to lying. Cigarettes and beer are deadly, but they give you a warning. Something like lying about the expiration date is more serious.

Vegetable Soup has warning on it.

Warning: Not actual Vegetable Soup. It's just Stephen Hawkinng swimming around in water.

I wonder what the odds are that the OP legitimately had milk that expires on April 1st..and found it on April 1st.

The box with the date written on it was produced beafore 1st of april, so that would be a lie, not a joke.

It seemed relevant to bring up after seeing Tom's links in the post about April Fool's Day.

Of course, cereals are word-wide known for their humorous behaviour, they lie about their expiration day and want you to believe that they are tasty.

Exactly. It's all just pro forma anyway.

Want to know if something's expired? Man up and taste that shit.
