The shelf life of a product is different from the shelf life, and for the same product, its shelf life should be longer than the shelf life. In addition, for products that exceed the shelf life, it does not necessarily mean that the product quality can never be guaranteed, it can only be said that the quality of the product beyond the shelf life cannot be guaranteed to meet the original product standards or express quality conditions.

For products that exceed the shelf life, their quality can be determined through quality inspection, especially safety performance indicators.
