The period fully possible to preserve ...
I found the following sentence (a) in a book. Is this grammatically correct? I feel “possible” is used wrongly.
(a) The best-before date can best be defined as the date showing the period fully possible to preserve the quality of the products so labeled.
How about (b), which I rewrote myself?
(b) ... the date showing the period during which it is fully possible to preserve the quality of the products so labeled.
Top answer
Both of those versions have errors. I suggest this. (c) The best-before date can best be defined as the date after which the quality of the products so labelled can no longer be completely preserved.
