True. The label on the food specifies that it should be discarded by 8 pm on January 15th, 2012. Since it is now 11 pm on the same day, the food has exceeded the discard date and should be discarded even if it does not appear to be spoiled.
Food labeling is an important aspect of food safety and is intended to protect consumers from potential health hazards. These labels provide information about the quality and safety of the food, and they also help to prevent the spread of foodborne illness.
It is important to follow food labeling instructions and discard food that has passed its expiration date or discard date, even if it does not appear to be spoiled. Consuming food that has passed its discard date can increase the risk of foodborne illness, even if the food looks, smells, or tastes normal.
