No, "best before" means exactly that, it's at its best before that date.
If people are wasting money and food by throwing out tonnes of it due to best before dates then that's their own stupid fault. If you know you're not going to eat something within good time then don't bother buying it.
It's all common sense, the look of food, the smell of it is a huge indicator especially with dairy products.
These dates are a safeguard for the shops/supermarkets otherwise they'd have all kinds of lawsuits for food poisoning etc.
