A warning has been issued by Asda about a change it says will affect every UK customer from September 1.
The supermarket chain is getting rid of 'best before' dates from 250 fruit and vegetable items. It means there will no longer be a warning on the packet that the food it best eaten before a certain date, reports Birmingham Live.
Andy Cockshaw, head of technical for Asda, said: “Reducing food waste in our business and in customers’ homes is a priority and we are always looking at different ways to achieve this. We know for customers this has become more important than ever in the current climate as many families are struggling with the cost-of-living crisis and are looking to make savings wherever they can.” You can get more consumer news and other story updates straight to your inbox by subscribing to our newsletters here.
