Bought 6 pack of yogurts on 5 Sept.
Just checked BB date: 6 Sept.

How do 6 baby yogurts get consumed in one day?!

I know it's their way of getting rid of the older stock, but I think supermarkets are a bit cheeky for putting this right at the front of the shelf and no indication that it's shortly to become out of date...

Annoyingly, I usually do check, but switched off on this occasion.
And I would eat them myself, anything up to a month out of date! But a bit more cautious wrt 8 mth old.

BAH!

BB fine. Yoghurts are easy to tell anyway, the lid pops up when they are off...

(but annoying? yes Grin)

Don't get me started on supermarket food. I have bought chicken from a well known supermarket on several occasions and about four times I've opened it and it's off (it's always opened before the 'best before' date of course). My local store must have dodgy storage practices. In fact, I'm going to write a letter of complaint! It's just not on.

Hope you yoghurts are edible.

'your', not you.

Schnitzel - glad to have inspired you Grin

Mini Gnome will be eating a lot of yogurt over the next couple of days!
