I just used a can of peas yesterday with a “best by” date of February 2009. and the tomato sauce that I used was ‘best by’ 2012, and that is because I think that I am out of my ‘best by’ 2008 tomato sauce.

I just used a can of peas yesterday with a best by date of February 2009. And that's part of the problem right there. Properly canned food can stay good for 20 years or more. So a "best buy" date there is essentially meaningless.
But a "best buy" date on, say, fresh chicken does have a real meaning. So the uninformed consumer ends up confused.

I'm a little bit more careful with tomato sauce, because it can eat the cans, and because of that vile white lining stuff. I only buy canned tomato products that don't have BPA linings now.
