    The recent patch seems to have resolved the issue although it wasn't mentioned in the patch notes. I've been back to the shop twice and there are 16+ days left on the milk and eggs I've left there. Thanks for your help. I'll post again if the problem pops up again.

@BerBearSim Does this only happen on the retail lot or at home as well ? Have you tested several fridges to see if it's tied to a certain fridge ?

Did you delete the localthumbcache file after removing your cc ?

Here's another update. I played my fresh game again, and the bug happens the next time you visit the retail lot. I had left some milk in the fridge there that had just been harvested last time I was there so I think it had 17 days left while refrigerated. When I came back to the lot, the milk had 16 hours left in the fridge, and that number was the same again when I placed the milk in my inventory. Moving it back and forth from fridge to inventory has no effect on how long before it spoils.

    @BerBearSim I did some testing but I only used delivered milk to test so question: Do you only see this with milk that you got from the cow or also if you order it ?

    I couldn't duplicate with bought milk even when coming back to the retail store little later.

      I didn't try it with bought milk, only milk fresh from the cows on my home lot. Also, I have the lot trait Simple Living on retail lot, and the retail lot is in Henford-on-Bagley converted from a residential lot. I don't know if these variables make a difference because I haven't tried different lots. I also had Simple Living on my home lot and didn't have the same issue with spoiling. I appreciate you testing it. I might try out a different retail lot in another world later. Thanks!
