I think this has been discussed here and I may have even been part of the discussion but I couldn't find any threads.
Is either one of the 4 digit numbers on these boxes a date code?

Don't know...but if you send one of them to me, I'll be happy to check it thoroughly for a year or two.

Per the internet.
First four digits = Batch Number
Second set of four digits = Production date as follows:
1st and 2nd numbers = last two digits of production date (the year)
3rd and 4th numbers = week of production (1-52 weeks in a year)
By that logic, looks like your batch number is 9091 on the second box, which was produced in the 16th week of 2018. The first box would be the 45th week of 2018
