Its so frusturating that things don't have use by dates
Even sell by dates are kind of annoying, but the codes are just ridiculous ! I find myself always throwing things out " just in case "...Is there some secret way to de-code these labels, short of calling up the company ??

For milk in NYC you can use it usually 5 days after the sell by date. In LI it is only 3 days after the sell by date. In NJ it is only 2 days after the sell by date.
Yogurt use by the date listed on the top of the label.
Grains/cereals use before the date listed on the top of the package. To make them last longer put them in a zip lock or a container.
