Hi mummies, anyone know why formula must be consumed within 3 weeks as per the instructions on the tin (Similac)?My LO only has formula once a day and after 3 weeks there is still half tin left. So now I'm drinking :)
 


Hi didadi,

I think some are 4weeks, some are 3 weeks depends on the brand... Reason being maybe is ensure the formula is fresh... Not that sure maybe can call their hotline n check:)

For me if my son cannot finish within the period I will still give to him... But will try to consume with 5weeks...
 
Ya, I'm also using formula even after 4 weeks. But I think most babies will finish 1 tin within a month. It's just a guideline.
