Join us for a webinar about food date labels that will cover new research and ongoing action to make them less confusing.

A survey of U.S. adults in January 2025 found that consumer confusion around food date labels has grown, with 43% reporting they "always or usually" discard food near or past the date on the label. Featuring the researchers behind the survey, this webinar will highlight key findings from this new research, as well as actions that are being taken by food businesses and state governments to address consumer confusion around food date labels and the unnecessary waste of safe, edible food.
