Understanding Date Labels on Imported Products
Most imported snacks and drinks from China, including brands like Pringles, Oreo, Lay’s, Doritos, Coca-Cola, and Pepsi etc, display a manufacturing date (MFG) rather than a best before date (BB). This is a standard practice in China, where shelf life is determined from the production date.
However, energy drinks are the exception, as they will have a best before date instead.
For your convenience, the custom label is translated from Chinese to English and usually includes the shelf life of the product. If a custom label is not present, look for a number with an arrow pointing upwards (e.g., 15, 12, 9), which indicates the shelf life in months. If you need further clarification, feel free to contact us!

How to Open Ramune Drinks
Ramune drinks have a unique bottle design that doesn’t open like a regular twist-off cap. Instead, they use a marble seal that must be pushed in before drinking.
How to open a Ramune bottle:
- Remove the packaging around the cap.
- Take the plastic opener included with the bottle.
- Press down firmly on the cap until the marble drops into the bottle.
- Once the marble is released, you can start drinking!
Don’t worry—there are instructions on the bottle as well if you need a visual guide. Enjoy your Ramune!
