Best Before
“My wife’s 90-year-old grandmother, having lived through World War II, doesn’t believe in ‘best before’ dates. It made eating at her house rather exciting. Sadly she recently had to move to a home and clearing out her larder was as thrilling as being offered a snack. All the products here, going back decades, we’re, I believe, intended to be eaten.’
