How do you find expiration date on Spanish rice?

Step 1:

Locate the product's packaging.

Step 2:

Look for the phrase "Fecha de caducidad" or "Fecha de vencimiento."

Step 3:

Take note of the format used.

If the expiration date is written in the following format: Day/Month/Year, use the day and month listed, add 1 year, and follow the number format of Year/Month/Day.

If it is written in the format: Month/Year or Year/Month, add 1 year to the month and day listed, and follow the number format of Year/Month/Day.

Example 1:

If the "Fecha de caducidad" is listed as "12/23," it means the rice will expire on December 12th, 2024. (You would add 1 year and switch the order by formatting the expiration date as: 2024/12/12)

Example 2:

If the "Fecha de vencimiento" is listed as "03/24," it means the rice will expire on March 3rd, 2025. (You would add 1 year and use the same format listed on the packaging: 2025/03/03)
