Chocolate and sweets, sentence 18

A best-before date is about quality and a use-by date on fresh food is about safety; the batch number printed beside it lets a factory recall every packet from one bad batch.

Who acts: best date, use, batch number · What happens: be, print, let, recall · To what, where: batch number, date, packet, one bad batch
