The "Best If Used By Date," which indicates the product's optimum quality and freshness, is stamped on the top of every jar of RAGÚ® sauce. It is recommended to use the sauce by this date.
In essence, the expiration date on Ragu sauce is found on the top of the jar. This date is not technically an expiration date indicating the sauce is unsafe after that day, but rather a "Best If Used By" date, suggesting the sauce's quality may decline after that point. While it's generally best to consume the sauce before this date for the best flavor and texture, it doesn't necessarily mean it's unsafe to eat after that date, provided it's been stored properly and shows no signs of spoilage (such as an off odor, mold, or unusual texture).
