Near Expiry Date

MYR15.80 nett a box but now they are having a buy 1 get another box free because they want to clear the CNY stock so I bought 1 box and ended up with 2 boxes.


They are tasty but not the best that I have eaten so far. 


The expiry date is 31 march 2017 which is about 9 days away.


The answer is for the previous post is I had the BMS signature nasi lemak! Who guessed correctly? Many did. Surprisingly, none guessed the vegetarian bak kut teh. For those who guessed teppanyaki, if you did a search for the word "teppanyaki" on my blog, you would have found no mention of teppanyaki before the previous post. That is because I absolutely dislike teppanyaki due to the smell of hot oil (almost like wok hei) so I have never eaten teppanyaki and wouldn't even try it. Thank you all for joining this guessing game! :) Have a good weekend!

  2. Like the Australian Arnotts biscuits here - my girl bought some for me, around RM4 something a week or two ago...and with the expiry date due next week, I saw them going for only RM2 something at a supermarket here yesterday. Normally those would cost at least over RM8.00 a pack.

  5. People are used to trust shops and do not check the expiration dates. Sometimes it's quite difficult to add 45 days or 120 days to the production date and find out if the expiration date is, so I use the app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=info.shelflife.shelflife

  8. I made sure I don't keep much CNY goodies. Whatever was left, was eaten and long gone, so no need to worry about expiry date.

  9. Can you finish the tarts by 31st March? The other day I went to buy coffee at BMS Organics and they gave me one tub of cookies. When I got home I noticed those also expire 31st March LOL!

  10. My wife often shakes her head to see going through the clearance corners at Cold Storage and Ben's. I could get huge boxes of cereals for less than RM10 & imported sauces at 70% discounts. Why not?
    If you keep that CNY cookies in the fridge, you can keep for another 6 months!

  12. I had trouble accessing your blog. I am here now.

    I saw bak kwa on Claire's blog (I finished my homemade a while ago. I made with pork, then veal. I may make some more with chicken/turkey). Pineapple tart, my fav.
