Buying and Storing Yoghurt

Buying Yoghurt

• Choose a Clean Store: Buy yoghurt from a hygienic shop to ensure safety.
• Check Use-by Dates: Look for the freshest yoghurt by checking dates; fresher products are often behind older ones on the shelf.
• Buy Only What You Need: Purchase in quantities you'll use soon to avoid waste.
• Check Seals: Ensure the yoghurt containers are properly sealed to keep them fresh.
• Buy Last: Pick up yoghurt towards the end of your shopping trip to keep it cool.

Storing Yoghurt

• Keep Upright: Store yoghurt upright in the fridge door to prevent spills.
• Store at 4°C: Keep yoghurt at 4°C to keep it fresh for longer.
• Rotate Stock: Use the oldest yoghurt first to avoid waste. Check the use-by dates and consume yoghurt before it expires.
• Avoid Strong Smells: Yoghurt should be kept away from strong-smelling foods, like onions, as it can absorb odours and change flavour.
