BUYING FRESH DAIRY

When you are shopping for dairy products, take a few extra minutes to check your expiration dates.

A lot of the time if you look back a few rows you will find products that have a later expiration date.

Be especially careful with items like sour cream and cottage cheese.

They are not as quick of movers as milk, and when they are left out in the coolers than can tend to warm up.

If you pick cartons that are buried in the back or toward the bottom they will have been kept cooler and will also keep longer once you get them home.
