ROX (Received, Opened and Expires) Label - 1.5 inch - 1000 Date Labels for Inventory Management - Food, Warehouse, Lab and Pharmacy - High Alert Medication Stickers and Due Date Stickers

Anyone regardless of home or business that has products in the kitchen should use and inventory using these stickers.

Working in the fast-food industry, “prep” was a daily job. From sauces, to meat, to cheese, to just about EVERY food item that was used – they had to have dates.One place I worked at used ROX (as shown in the picture):ReceivedOpeneXpiresVery self-explanatory. Only these were used for the HUGE gallon size sauces: butter garlic, barbeque, hot sauce.The R date was the date the item arrived at the store, usually from the corporate office’s “commissary” truck. The O was the date it opened. The X – when it expired. Not the date that was listed on the bottle, the amount of time allowed from open to “possible” spoilage. Usually that was a month.Though we didn’t have stickers like this. I wish we did. We had to write on the side with a Sharpie. Sometimes that got messy and the ink would smudge. While not major to some – we could’ve gotten in trouble for it.Typically found (hot sauce) (like seen on picture):R – 12/25/2021O – 1/05 (we’d know it was 2022 right off)X – 2/05 (despite the bottle read an “expired” date of 12/31/2022)Actual “mileage” would vary. Usually, the hot sauce was gone WAY before that.For the price, this is definitely a LOT of labels for home use, but worth it if you’re a bulk-buying and food prepper.I have come to rely on these stickers with leftovers as well.
