Not so sure about the time on raw pork, wouldn't it matter how old it already is? I routinly get packaged pork pieces that give me a week or more on the lable. The shoulders I buy in bulk don't even have a date on them??? Makes me wonder...

I'm sure it depends on a lot of things. Keeping the food at proper storage temps, etc. I believe the times listed are after the "dates" on the label, but here is a link to the page that talks specifically about dates.
