What is this? Some foods from Lithuania may have fake “use by” dates. This means the date printed on the package might not be real.

What's happening? Lithuania found foods with dates that were changed or made up. These foods were sold in Lithuania.

Does this affect me? If you bought food in Lithuania, check the date on the package.

What should I do? Ask a pharmacist or doctor if you are worried about any food you bought.
