Hi and thank you for responding.
I just talked to their nutritionist at HQ yesterday and he told me the mfg date is a year before expiration date. TODAY the sales rep said the mfg date is 18 months before the expiration date. Seems like quite a long time for a product with no preservatives in it.
They said the date on the bottom of the bag is merely the date the bag itself was made.
