I grew up in Canada so everything had english and french labels. "Best Before/Meilleur Avant" was printed on milk cartons next to the best before date. I always thought that Meilleur Avant was some kind of new and superiour milk and that the milk that we drank used to be the best until Meilleur Avant was produced. I always looked for it when when we went shopping but never found the new improved milk.
