It looks like the city of New York will no longer be adding their own sell-by date to milk sold in their grocery stores. I'm not even sure why anyone needs one sell-by date, much less two. When I was a kid, there was only one way to tell if your milk was fit to drink: have Mom smell it.

And by the way, I don't care how equal the sexes are. No kid in his right mind is ever going to ask Dad to sniff the milk for him.

How about this for a labeling system: Fresh, Not-so-fresh, and Yogurt.
