Yes, especially things like milk etc, that is the last sell by date, not use date. which means that if the milk says June 7 it will be good, provided it is stored and kept cool as required for at least 7 days past June 7.

What does a sell-by date identify?

In the United States, a "sell-by" date identifies the date by which the item should no longer be offered for sale. That should allow the consumer enough time to use the product. It is not an "expiration" or "use-by" date. If a store is still offering food that is beyond the "sell-by", I suggest you contact the local health department with jurisdiction.
