How do you read an expiration date such as 09May07?

09/May/07 is May 9th, 2007. On perishable goods you will see 'best before' either 09/MA/07 or MA/09/07. This does not mean the products isn't good to eat for another couple of days, but just that it tastes it best up to the date given. You should NEVER eat anything more than two dates after the expiration date. These dates can be found on the lid of the products or on the side of the package.
