That is the date! The few that I left un-dated are relatively new, as in 6 or less months old. Anything noteworthy was marked for you!

And, I did receive my end from David - a jar of Bacon Old Fashioned and a jar of Back Down South, both from BriarWorks (but made by Cornell & Diehl). I've only opened the OBF so far and man-oh-man is it awesome!

Thanks, David!
