I just finished enjoying my very first jimmyjoy-plennyshake shake - very pleased, though while drinking, I was examining my bags and noticed they all have an expiry date of 26/04/2016. I’m a little disappointed as I was planning to stretch my drinks out over longer than this, and I’d imagined the powder would come with a longer life. My question is - is it typical to receive bags with such a short life, and how safe is consumption after this date? Is it a ‘best before’ or a ‘use by’?
It’s very safe to drink long after the date, however nutrients will degrade after. Which means they cannot guarantee that you for instance still get a 100% of the RDA of vit D after the printed date. If you don’t mind that you can safely consume it long after, as long as the bags where sealed and undamaged. I personally would not waste them. That being said, this is my personal opinion, it’s possible that they cannot claim this officially (for legal reasons for instance).
Thanks for getting in touch about this. It is indeed so that jimmyjoy-plennyshake is not unsafe to consume after the expiry date; we however cannot guarantee that the product will still contain 100% of your vitamins and minerals as these may start to break down. Nevertheless, you should not have received bags with an expiry date of 26/04/2016. Could you please take a photo of the back of one of your bags and send it to olivia@jimmyjoy.com?
We will be sure to find a fitting solution for this .
Hi there!
I was a bit surprised when I got my last order.
The order was from July and the expire date was very similar to the bags in the order I made back in January.
Before it was almost a year duration, and now just 5 months! Is this expected? I like to buy a lot and use them on and off…
