Maybe there's something to this end of the world stuff? Tossing out old stuff and stocking up on new I discovered none of the new cans are dated after 12/12/12.

Not fair, not everyone has hair to warn them, send me a lock.

I thought the poster was "out there" until I checked the dates.
Sure enough, everything in my pantry dated after 12/12/12 was manufactured on the planet Melmac.

That is designed to make you throw it out sooner and spend the money again.
Every notice that prescriptions used to be valid for a year and now it’s six months. All about your wallet.

Their world ended a long time ago. Long before 2012 and they didn't even see it coming.

For the record: As someone else may have posted by now (but I haven’t seen it yet), the reason is quite simple.
As E. Pluribus Unum pointed out, albeit rather tangentially, you surely wouldn’t want to eat something that would be “good” for decades. Similarly for alarm rider’s point about MRE’s.
The most likely reason your canned goods aren’t dated past 12/12/2012 is probably because for most canned goods, 4 years is their usual shelf life. That latest “batch” was probably produced around Dec 12th of 2008, thus the 4 year span.
I’d try buying some more canned goods again around April or May; I’d be willing to bet they would have an expiration date around 5/1/2013 for similar reasons.

Crap!! My “t”’s are expiring too!

Wow! that’s the date I discovered on my scalp one day when I combed my hair a certain way when it was wet just out of the shower
I have a number on my head, too. It's the model number of the frying pan she hit me with when she caught me watching the Playboy channel.
