Moratorium
Moratorium

In food world there's a strange double standard, that is 'best before' and 'bad after'.
Best before indicates our optimal consumption date but that does not necessarily indicate the limit of permissable consumption date we can consume as long as possible. That means we can consume the products after the date of best before if we don't care the taste or freshness of the products as much as possible.
In general consumers tend to use the products after the date of best before. Producers ought not to use their products after the date of best before, however they sometimes do. It's not a good idea, since producers ought not to be a consumer, they are a mediater of products. It's important to define the role of producers and consumers, but when they failed to do so, the collapse starts.
The moratorium between the period of best before and bad after is the cause of confusion in food industry, but at the same time the gap between these two dates bears nothing but the profit.
