Decorative Expiration Date Reminders

This Artful Expiration Date Calendar Keeps Track of Bad Food

— August 14, 2013 — Art & Design
This expiration date calendar will help you keep your food from spoiling with more style than ever before. It turns printed expiration dates into a piece of art.

The Expiration Calendar YYYY can be used to keep track of when the milk goes bad, or to visualize the year ahead. The perpetual calendar poster does not specify the year, so it can be used over and over. The calendar comes with expiration date orange sticky notes for you to write food items or upcoming events on. The functional poster measures 27" by 39" and is printed on a bright white back stock.

This useful decor item works well in any room of the house. It might be best utilized to recall important dates and appointments, rather than when the eggs need to be thrown out. The sniff test works just as well.
