How long does this last?

We cannot give you an exact date for expiration. Theoretically, if the food was processed safely, for example for canning, and stored properly and shows no sign of spoilage, until that vacuum seal is broken, there should be no way that it becomes further contaminated or becomes unsafe. The one issue with keeping foods too long is you will get quality deterioration, you can get real darkening of colours of many foods, you might get some cloudiness that occurs as starches settle out of the foods, all these extended quality changes over time can start to interfere with our ability to detect spoilage even though it may not be actual spoilage, it may just be deterioration of the food quality, so it’s not a good idea to me to try use things really old or try to look at 25 year old food and assume that it’s safe…We just don’t have absolute expiration dates to give people and neither does the commercial industry, quite frankly. But if it was safe at the time it was originally canned, until that seal is broken there should be nothing else happening to make it unsafe.

@@CrazyCajunLiving ahhhh Okayy I am a beginner at canning and this sounds beyond logical. If I may ask what would be a safe way to prevent contamination after opening or if opened should you use the whole thing? Thank you so much for replying your knowledge very helpful😊

@@theeorganicgurll Use the whole thing once opened.

About 2 years for sure. After that it's a risk. But if it smells good and can be cooked, cook it for 10 minutes. Or until 165°.
