  'Best before' vs 'use by'

  While 'use-by' dates are an important health warning, 'best befores' are simply a manufacturer's guidance of quality. It's perfectly legal to sell goods beyond a best-before date. However, as there's no hard-and-fast rule on how far beyond a best before it's still safe to eat products, you need to make that call yourself.

  While look and smell are important and often the best indicators, you can't always tell with packaged items such as these, especially as you won't be able to check each item before it's delivered to you. Not everything's past its best-before date and Approved Food does tend to display the date online for each product, so you'll likely know before you buy.

  What MoneySavers say about Approved Food
  

  It has a Trustpilot score of 3.9/5 from 2,500+ reviews, and feedback on it is mixed. Some suggest bargains have recently become harder to find, and others say using the cheaper option for post makes it a much slower service. We've seen reports from users across our forum and Trustpilot that the food arrives well packaged and in good condition, and that the food itself is decent quality.

  See the MSE Forum for more feedback (good and bad), but do bear in mind that bad news usually travels faster and further.

  MSE Georgia-May says:

  Shopping via Approved Food can be a great way to save on stocking up on those cupboard essentials, if you're not fussed about some items being past their best before.

  There's a £22.50 minimum spend before the code can be applied, so it's only MoneySaving if you buy in bulk – so rather than replacing your normal supermarket shop, it's a way you can stock up on a few specific items you regularly buy when you spot them here at a heavily reduced price. It's a bit of a game, and you'll need to do your own research to find the best deals for you.
