Sell By

Should I be concerned that I live in a city where milk spoils seven days earlier than anywhere else in New York state? Also, I feel like having a Wegman's in Brooklyn would solve this problem.

Whaaaa?? Are milk burglars a problem there?

Everyone knows the NYC is a fast paced city. Time simply moves more quickly there - hence the milk spoils sooner than in other places. Simple. Ask any quantum physicist.

If you had purchased that milk in a store in Massachusetts, say, the carton might read "Sell by Feb 6 - In Vermont Feb 12". Time works the other way up there, because everything in Vermont is slower.

And the cows are contented.
