|Updated:
British supermarket Morrisons will remove “use-by” dates from milk packaging at the end of January in an attempt to stop millions of pints of its own-brand product from being thrown away unnecessarily by customers each year, a spokesperson confirmed to The Guardian.

The Bradford-headquartered supermarket said it will instead place “best before” dates on 90 percent of its own-brand milk, including own-brand British and Scottish milks, Morrisons For Farmers milks, and Morrisons organic milks, as per The Guardian.
