Question on Freshness

[Grim]

Hi guys its been awhile since I posted but still been snusing away.

Luckily, a local retailer near me started carrying general products but its the basic original, white, mint, wintergreen, and los.

I needed something with a bit more kick so I ordered some General Ekstra Sterk.

It arrives and the can is in english. It reads General Extra Strong, but the back of the can is still in Swedish. At the best before date it says bast fore 2-11-2012. Im confused as the top half is all in english but the underside is not. So am I to read this as dd/mm/yyyy or mm/dd/yyyy?

if the can is in Swedish, then the date is the European format, so that is Nov, 2 2012....no worries ;-)

Well that's what baffled me. The whole can is English except the bottom

Your real clue is if it says "bast" or "best"....then you'll know
