31 Aug 2022 --- Sainsbury’s, the second largest supermarket chain in the UK, will remove its best before dates at the end of August. The company will eliminate these labels from 1,500 items, in a move that is projected to save up to 17 million food product waste each year. This announcement follows a current trend in the UK of grocery stores removing their best-by-dates. Waitrose & Partners got rid of their “best before” dates earlier this month.
