I originally posted this on the other site back when I took the picture, and it resulted in a lot of confused comments, especially from Americans, eventually getting removed by overzealous mods. Either way, I promise you that this date does not exist, and has never existed.

They are the expiration date though. Why do you say that so confidently if you don’t know what you’re talking about?
These numbers are put on by grocery clerks with a price-gun. All they did was add on however many days the product is supposed to last after it got put on the shelf. So it’s really just some grocery worker not worrying about a date not existing. I woulda done the same thing if I was stocking these tbh.
Swede here. Those labels are from the producer. It’s easier to just use the same bags and then add the expiration date on a separate labels than to print the expiration date on the bags themselves.
That way if you make same same bread on the same date but one batch gets frozen and the other gets sent out fresh you just use the same bags but they get different labels with different exparation dates depending if they are frozen or fresh.
I schedule all my meetings for March 31st.
