Talk:Expiration dates

From Open Food Facts wiki

What is the purpose of listing an expiration date? It's going to change between batches of a product so will very quickly be meaningless when listed on a products page. ( Scrypt (talk) 23:56, 7 September 2018 (CEST) )

It's not being listed on the page, but it's shown in a field in the editor to help editors see data from which version of a product with this code has been entered most recently. --Bleakpatch (talk) 07:23, 8 September 2018 (CEST)
