I’ve never gotten recent dates for use by from Amazon. Always good long dates.
But the dents! Never seen dents like that in the grocery store. 1/4 of the packs I wouldn’t have touched in the store and am always nervous but use first in case it’s a recent dent in shipping. I play ordering games trying to force what gets packed with what to see if I can minimize the problem. Usually not.
This is an excellent guide with photos.
