    Yeah, the date on the package means even less if you freeze it. Frozen meat is good for years.

    (Freeze your ground beef, freeze your bread. Throwing away food is expensive!)

      Yes, and freeze sauces, soups, and stews in ice cube trays and then into freezer bags for easy portioning later. This was life changing advice for me.
