Sainsbury's announce major changes to more than 200 products starting this week

Sainsbury's has become the latest supermarket to announce a major change to its food packaging which will affect 276 own-branded fresh products in stores.

The supermarket chain has confirmed it will be axing 'best before' dates from a whole host of fresh fruit and vegetables, including pears, onions, tomatoes, and citrus fruits from over 100 product lines, with a further 130 products including potatoes to follow.

Shoppers can expect to see the labelling changes from the end of August in a move the supermarket has said will help them to eliminate 17 million food products going to waste each year.
