Reading a code on a label

Food plants and depots often print the pack date as a Julian code, because it is short and sorts in order. A carton marked 26045 was packed on day 45 of 2026, February 14. A 4-digit code like 6045 drops the decade, so you have to know roughly when it was made. US egg cartons use just the three digits for the pack date.
