How do you count dates it on products? For example, how would you date Avo or Caesar dressing? I know how to date the sliced products but I feel like I've been misinformed on the rest by my GM, area manager and even the auditor. They say to count today as one day. So if something says 7days it's really 6because you count the day of. Not only does this not make sense because it causes confusion for most but I've read over the product storage standards for food safety and labeling and it does not state anywhere that 3days in one product is counted different than on another product.

I hope this is understood and clear in what im asking and explaining here??😂
