    Hey Alicia.. Just thought I share it's better to grab grocery stuff towards the back instead of the front..the ones that near expired date are normally placed to to the front plus most people be touching on the stuff in the front. Check the expiration date too before you buy. Nuff time I pick up stuff even from the back and they done expire but still in the store for sale..smh
