You cant, its one of those daft facts.

Someone one explained why but I cant remember.  I'll find out.

Edit:  From Walkers....

Sell by dates on Crisp packets end on a Saturday for the licencing trade. This is because normally dry stock rotation in pubs and clubs in on a Friday, therefore, sell by dates are on a Saturday to ensure sales up to and including stock rotation day.

All sounds a bit odd to me, surely the sell by date should be generated from the date they are produced? I'm sure more get consumed outside pubs than in them.

I don't really eat crisps, but we sometimes get given pack lunch type food at work that always includes a bag of them. I have a load of bags my locker and went through them last night out of sheer boredom - it was true!!

It's a great fact to mess with people's heads with though.

And I've put this thread in the wrong section.
