It's about liability. They don't have to guarantee that the product is safe after the date on the package. Doesn't mean it's gone bad, just that they can't be sued.

What makes you so certain it's the "USA" format? They use both formats around the world.

I went through the Lego section and was quite impressed.
I then visited the Hot Wheels aisle when a rogue Korean toddler charged me and slapped my leg for some reason. Fortunately, the child ran away immediately after.
