That could mean august 2006 but read up on expiration codes. There are fine articles on the amount of waste of food in the modern world. Alot of it is from lack of knowledge or the quest to only eat the finest freshest newest and leave the rest for the middle and lower classes or dispose of or use for cattle feed. The truth is that the date codes or best before dates are for the supermarket to know when to put the newer foods with the newer marketing strategies up on the shelves. It may be expired for them but not for the consumer. At times it may be expired but only because the colour may start to change or it may not represent the company the best. Some who go to extremes may argue that there is less nutrition if a product isn't the freshest. Some argue that any processing at all has already ruined the nutrition. I say you can eat these products even 7 years past the due date. Canned goods can be good even 20 years later. Try making the meal. Once you open it smell for mold or an off smell... if so discard. During war times or famine many would love to have even that.
Fish foods often don't have an expiration date on them, but
they have a short shelf life. Flake foods lose much of their nutritional value
in about a month, so you should purchase only what you can use in a few weeks.
Vitamin and nutritional deficiency is a big contributor in making fish
susceptible to disease.
