Oh, I look at the dates, but there's no doubt that it definitely goes bad faster, too. For instance, I used to be able to buy sour cream that would be useful for about three weeks. Now it gets full-scale fuzzy by the second week. Fresh salsa starts to turn black within a week.
It's not our fridge. We buy a lot of stuff straight from the farmers, and that lasts perfectly well.
It isn't a change in my buying habits, either - I've been buying mostly natural, less-processed stuff for a long time, and I've been buying (nearly) the exact same groceries every week for almost four months now.
