Foods That (Almost) Won’t Expire

Expiration dates have been the bane of mankind ever since we invented the calendar. So because the current date is later than the date printed on my food, I should throw it away? Nonsense!

Join the revolution, buy foods that don’t expire!

Honey
Honey lasts forever because bees are smarter than humans. I’ll save you the technical details, but they once found a jar of honey that was guesstimated at 5500 years old. Even Yoda didn’t last that long.

Sugar
Airtight containment is probably good advice. As long as you keep the sugar dry, it’ll last for practically forever.

Salt
Well, it’s just a mineral, really. Minerals last forever. It’s even used as something to preserve other food. Sadly, the regular table salt has iodine added to it in most cases, which drastically cuts its longevity to about 5 years.
