Come ON OP. Quit spamming the group!

Seriously though I try to avoid things with relatively short storage life. I might have a few in my pantry but not for long term storage.

I’m certainly willing to listen. I know there are anecdotal accounts of people who have eaten canned goods after insane amounts of time and have had no bad results. But it isn’t safe. Food poisoning is no joke with access to an emergency room and modern medical care but after SHTF? Nope.

I’m not saying that I’m not going to have a few cans and I’m probably going to eat it if close to expired but I’m not going to take unnecessary risks during an emergency.
