EAS Simply Protein- no expire date on the box

[Za_S|ick]

Hello! I've bought 2 EAS Simply Protein 5lbs boxes and they don't have an expire date. There are however serials on the boxes:1298J20 1926 and 1348J99 1446. Do you think they are expired or why isn't it an expire date? I know I should have looked for the expire date before I bought them, but I forgot.

I don't know but even if they are I wouldn't worry about it.

Pain, thank you for you quick reply.
But I've got to ask, why shuoldn't I worry if they are expired? What is the purpose of the expiry date then?

[painintheazz]

That is a best if used by date, if anything it will be a little stale tasting and maybe lose a little of its potency. This even goes for medical prescribtions. The EXP date is a date were after that you cant expect 100% potency. But they decline is very slow. I have used exp protein before and been fine. They put that date there to cover their asses.

I've emailed EAS about the expiration dates and they have responded:
1298J20 1926 October 2003
1348J99 1446 January 2004


I guess they are ok, thanks again for the answers.
