I just checked our current bottle which is Best Before Apr 2021.

The date is moulded into the clear plastic bottle just below the base of the neck instead of the usual practice of printing it in black so it can be hard to find and read.

Nine.com has upgraded the official recall from “may splatter’” to “fears that the bottles could explode upon opening, spraying the spicy liquid onto consumers’ skin, eyes and home.”

Never let the truth get in the way of a good story.
