Opened creamer packages stored inside the coffee maker at 41°F or lower were dated for eight days. They were dated from 4/25 to 5/2. Because today is 5/1 and the bags were well within the seven-day period allowed by the Tennessee Department of Agriculture (TDA), they did not need to be discarded until the end of the day. If the firm wished to datemark them for more than seven days, it would need to submit a variance letter to TDA. |
