General Comments- 7-Eleven date marking stickers for the creamer (whole milk/half & half) in the milk dispensers automatically print out date marks for 14 days. EHS advised that the PIC should use the creamer date sticker that is made for Florida in their system as that one is a 7 day date mark and that the PIC should try to get 7-Eleven corporate to correct the issue. This item is common throughout numerous 7-Elevens in the area.
