Default Jars & best before

Hi

From what I've seen of commercial bottling, it turns out some glass
bottled products aren't heated to boiling at all after filing, such as
mustard. This is true for sauces in plastic bottles too, which have
added issues. As these are different to traditional sterile canning,
what's the food safety situation with such items past ther best before
date? Its more practical than hypothetical.

thanks, NT
