• “BEST If Used By” (or “BEST If Used or Freeze By”) = quality phrasing • the product is safe to use or consume, but has exceeded the window of its optimal taste or
performance.
• “USE By” (or “USE or Freeze By”) = safety phrasing • for perishable products with potential safety implications or material degradation of
critical performance over time, such as food spoilage or an SPF declaration on sunscreen.
