MFD, MFG, EXP, EXD, BB, BBE คืออะไร

Posted by ENG 1001 Exam Preparation Team Posted on 12:52 AM with No comments
Ref: http://www.savethestudent.org
เคยสังเกตุไหม๊ครับ ว่า ที่ถุงขนม ถุงมาม่า กล่องนม ปลากระป๋อง ขวดยา และอื่นๆอีกมาก  มีฉลาก (label) เขียนตัวย่อกำกับไว้ว่า MFD - ตามด้วยวันที่ หรือ EXP/EXD - ตามด้วยวันที่  หรือ BB/BBE  - ตามด้วยวันที่ ดังตัวอย่างในรูปและตัวอย่างข้างล่างนี้

MFD 010210
EXP  010212
BBE  MAR 2014

และโดยส่วนมากเราจะดูฉะเพาะ EXP/EXD เพราะมันคือวันที่หมดอายุนั่นเอง แต่รู้ใหม๊ครับว่า ตัวย่อ MFG, MFD, EXP, EXD, BB หรือ BBE มันย่อมาจากอะไร

คำตอบก็คือ

MFD, MFG = Manufacturing Date/Manufactured Date
วันที่ผลิต
EXP, EXD = Expiry Date/Expiration Date
วันที่หมดอายุ
BB/BBE = Best Before/Best Before End
ควรบริโภคก่อนวันที่

คำต่อไปนี้บางที่ก็จะเห็นบนฉลากยาซึ่งเป็นการระบุวันที่หมดอายุหรือวันที่ที่ควรบริโภคก่อนเช่นกัน  ซึ่งก็จะมีระบุวันที่ที่หมดอายุด้านหลังคำเหล่านี้

Exp. Date
Expiring
Used before
Use by

มีข้อที่น่าสังเกตุอยู่เกี่ยวกับ วันหมดอายุ (expiry date) กับวันที่ที่ควรบริโภคก่อน (Best Before) ที่ใช้กับผลิตภัณฑ์ต่างๆ คือ วันหมดอายุ เป็นการระบุวันที่ฟลิตภัณฑ์นั้นๆจะเน่าเสีย ส่วนควรบริโภคก่อนเป็นการระบุวันที่ที่เกี่ยวกับเรื่องรสชาติ รูปแบบ และหน้าตาของอาหาร ถ้าเลยวันที่ระบุ รสชาติ หน้าตารูปแบบของผลิตภัณฑ์นั้นๆอาจจะไม่เหมือนเดิมแต่อาจจะไม่เน่าเสีย ซึ่งต่างกับ expiry date ที่เป็นการระบุวันที่เน่าเสีย
ตัวอย่างอาหารที่ต้องติดฉลาก expiry date
  • meal replacements (อาหารที่ทดแทนมื้ออาหาร)
  • nutritional supplement (อาหารเสริม)
  • infant formulas (นมผง สูตรสำหรับทารกแรกเกิดถึง 1 ปี)
  • formulated liquid diets

Have you ever noticed the abbreviations MFD, MFG, EXP, EXD, BB or BBE  on the label beside or on the top of the milk carton, medicine bottle, cracker bag or other products container? 
This abbreviations would be followed by the date which are the date of manufacturing or expiration.

The abbreviation MFD/MFG and EXP/EXD are the manufacturing/manufactured date and expiry/expiration date of the product respectively. 

Mostly, what we pay attention to is EXP or EXD, of course. This indicates if the product is good for consuming or not. So, don't be surprised when you see the term Best Before or Best Before End is used as it conveys the same message. 

There is one fact worth mentioning about the difference between Best Before and Expiry Date. When refer to Best Before date, it does not mean the food is unsafe to eat when it past this best before date.  However,  it tells that the food will retain its freshness until the specified date. In contrary, Foods with expiry dates cannot be sold past this date. 

 Here are list of products that need to be labelled with an expiration date:
  • meal replacements
  • nutritional supplement
  • infant formulas
  • formulated liquid diets

Woody Talk - Bill Heinecke

Posted by ENG 1001 Exam Preparation Team Posted on 12:36 PM with No comments
This is the very first article that I wrote completely in English on this RU ENG1001 blog, and there would be more to come. The purpose of the English writing articles are nothing, but the belief and  hope that they will give you more opportunity to an exposure to an English environment. I believe that reading is one of efficient way of learning English. Another way of learning English is though watching movie, talk-show or any online program that convey in English.

Like these 5 series of videos below. Besides having a chance to learn English, at the same time you will get the opportunity to know the famous businessman who runs many business in Thailand. Have you ever known that the pizza you ordered from Pizza Company belongs to this man? He was also the founder of Pizza Hut in Thailand. Sizzler, Burger King, Swensen's and others more that are in Minor Group Corporation. He also is the author of the book "The Entrepreneur: 25 Golden Rules for the Global Business Manager". Ladies and Gentlemen, here I present you with the exclusive Interview of Bill Heinecke (William Heinecke).

The videos are the very exclusive interview that can inspire you as it has inspired me. This talk show was about 1 year old since it was on air, but I believe that the inspiration is still there waiting to fire you up. The interviewer, Woody, was very keen with his questions. I hope you guy like it.
