Swansons was a reputable company up until a few years ago, when founder Lee Swanson retired and sold it to sharks. Now they often ship products that are expired or soon to be expired. I bought 20 bottles of their "Deal of the Day" at the end of June. They all expired August 1st! When I called the CSR apologized for my inconvenience. I told her that this was no inconvenience, it was outright fraud. Of course there was no supervisor available come to the phone.
