Can you sue a store for giving you expired food?

Excuse me, I was wondering if you could clarify something for me. I recently purchased some food from a store, only to find out later that it was expired. I'm curious, is it possible to sue a store for selling expired food? I understand that it's a serious issue and I'm not sure what my legal options are in this situation. Could you please provide some insight on this matter? Can you sue a store for giving you expired food?

Liability in product transactions extends beyond the immediate seller. In cases where the product is faulty or defective, the manufacturer or supplier may also bear responsibility.

For instance, if a consumer unwittingly purchases expired food from a grocery store, they have the right to seek a resolution.

The first step would be to return the product to the store of purchase and request a refund.

If the store fails to provide a satisfactory refund, the consumer can explore other avenues for redress.

One option is to file a claim in small claims court, a legal forum designed to handle disputes involving relatively small amounts of money.
