when we were in a stick lock down I received the email by M&S that forget the dates which are written on the packaging you can keep the fresh fruit and food in the fridge while it does not feel off . best thing we learnt from the lock down not to waste the food . I am not favouring any one here but the situations we had been and still the shortage of food made us realised a lot of reality.
Doesn't apply in BB as it does in real life. They are given groceries regularly. They fought over bhendis which were with fungus which was weeks old. The food stinks too and even Shamita complained about it yesterday.
