This book presents the work of the artist F. Bonniot who collected for a year 365 dairy deserts, with the expiration date of each day of the year written on it.
I have three children and I regularly buy dairy products for them, mostly yogurt. I like to stroll through this department of the supermarket, whose rigor of organization is matched only by the beauty of the packaging of the displayed products. Customers choose yogurts based on packaging, brands and of course their own taste. For my part, in 2009, I decided to have only one choice criterion: their expiry date. By buying and then eating dairy products with an expiration date of January 1 to December 31, I made a consumer collection. So I selected and then consumed with my family throughout the year yogurts mentioning the 365 dates. "
