Today I purchased a turkey sandwich that was made on 19 May (BB date 22 May) however the bread was already stale.

The following day I went to buy coffee and asked how long have the vanilla slices been in the display, the assistant told me 3 days. Based on the look of them, they looked much older than 3 days. The coffee is ok, but I wouldn't...
