Looked at milk I have.
Expiration period: 6 days.
Did you mean 3-4 days since purchase? Here it’s counted from production date.

I mean 3-4 days since production. In this case it might be higher, since Theres no exposure to the surrounding air.

People like my boomer mother will buy a gallon of milk and expect it to be good for 2+weeks.
She is part of the reason I do a small shopping every couple days and only but what I need for the foreseeable future. An entire generation of Americans that are used to everything being so pumped with preservatives that we can eat a Twinkie that rolled under the couch last presidential election.
Yet, we have to scrub eggs of their natural coating at the farm, requiring them to be refrigerated.
Food regulation in the US hasn’t moved very far from the 60s.
