Spice has an “expiration date” only to increase sales. McCormick figured out that nobody was throwing them away and replacing, so added expiration dates that some people feel they have to abide by.
Yup, I have some that "expired" in like 2017... we still use it and we're alive... obviously those ones aren't ones we use regularly hence why I'd hate to re-purchase them.
So true. My daughters went through my spice cabinet and started throwing away my spices. I had to explain to them that it was just a "hoax" by the spice companies to get you to throw out good spices and replace with new ones. If they're kept sealed in a container and out of the sun and heat, they're good, which mine are always.
☕️I remember my aunt keeping the same jar of Sanka instant coffee in her freezer for years, just so she’d have some for my grandparents when they visited. 😁
No need to freeze it. We don’t drink coffee but have visitors that do. The freeze dried stuff literally lasts forever. Coffee drinkers WILL tell you if the coffee is no good
I am soooo glad you said that about the sugar not needing oxygen absorbers. I'll be storing some in 5 gallon buckets this week and had already planned to throw in a handful before sealing it up. Thanks for the great information.
I would be absolutely lost without my vacuum sealer! I also have the attachment which seals mason jars. I have a ton of snacks in those jars and when the grandkids come over there is always snacks waiting for them (they will last for years with the oxygen absorber). I rarely ever throw any food out..
the acids in the tomatoes eat through the metal and seals, making them not last more than 2 yrs. We had #10 cans that leaked all over our shelving in our long term storage.... what a total waste! You'll get a longer shelf life if you dehydrate and pulverize into powder, and vacuum seal in a canning jar, - reconstitute by adding water. Will store by far longer than any canned tomato product will.
Refrigerator Creamers, I’ve used ones that expired 1 year earlier. They have no issues. No curdling. Nothing. I’m still using my pumpkin spice ones from thanksgiving. I stock up on my favorites around the holidays and use them all year long! It kind of makes you wonder what’s really in them that is keeping the shelf life so long in the refrigerator. 🧐
Thank you for the confirmation on lots of these foods! I bought a 25# bag of Clear Jel when I first started canning (for pie filling) because that was the only size I could find locally. It is still completely fine 8 years later after being kept in an airtight container and re-vacume sealed after refilling my pantry container each time. According to the package it expired 7 years ago, lol. I use it now in place of regular corn starch and it will probably last me another five years considering how slowly I'm using it. Thank you, Kimmy!
Thanks for this quick yet very informative video! Everyone needs to know this now. We just moved into a new house and I’ve now turned one room into a long term storage room, just like you! I’ve been watching you for probably two years now. You have me motivated. We bought half a cow, have long term food, growing a small garden because we got into our house a little late. We are in an HOA, so no chickens! That’s a huge bummer! I know you’re a very, very business woman plus all your other roles, but I’d really like to send you a personal message that’s not open for the world to read on the internet. Is it just not practical to get a PO Box? Love ya Girly, Carrie P.S. You’re looking fabulous! Whatever your doing is working. I thought you were beautiful at any weight 😘🥰
They don't, they last about 5 years if stored properly, you'll know when ghee is going bad when it starts turning from yellow to white and has a sour smell. Coconut oil also only lasts for about 5 years and once you start seeing yellow or brown streaks in it's solid form it's time to throw it out.
@@beryl1776 Thanks for taking the time to let me know that. It's helpful info. 5 years is still an awesome length of time & longer than I thought it would be! YAY!💕🐨
Thanks for this list. I too thought beans could store forever until I tried to cook some that were quite old. No matter how long I cooked them they remained hard.
Thank you for a very informative video! I didn't realize that there are quite a few things that don't "expire"! Thank you for taking the time to let us know. Have a wonderful day and a safe holiday!😊👍🙏🧨🎆❣️
I love buying bulk popcorn kernals & keep in a mason jar & they are always good. I have been using mason jars for all my pasta, dog/cat treats & candies.
Hi Kimmy, love the new summer hairdo! It's very complimentary on you. Good video to share to help others with stocking up. Would love if you would do more videos like this one. Also, will you please show proper ways to store rice and beans for long haul. Have seen many different ways but not sure which one is really best. Thanks
Love this video I knew some but not all I'm working on my food pantry for a year and this was definitely a good to know thank you so much happy 4th to you
I think it's very wise to know that a lot of our food banks get donations of near expired / expired food for food giveaways, and mobile pantries. Run by local churches and social agencies, they have to follow certain FDA standards. This reminded me that you can go beyond those expiration dates on some items and still consume them. Yes, it does effect vitamin content, taste, and looks. But still very consumable. And now a days you can buy multivitamins to suppliment those needs. Hope this helps some of the fear of consuming some expired food items. There will come a time when the information will be important, and needed.🤔
Mmmhm. If you wouldn't eat it, don't push potentially bad food on people in need. I've been on food pantry before, having food spoil sucked something awful when you're not able to replace it.
It is donated that is why they are able to give it away after expiration. There are no FDA guidelines. Just like if your neighbor gave you something or from their garden. Stores are not allowed to sell for profit because there is a possibility of contamination or mold. Better safe than sorry.
@@lorrainefloyd9845 food pantries cannot give out expired products and they ARE under the regulations of the FDA as well as state and local ordinances. I’ve worked with my church’s food and pet food pantries.
@Saravannerman .. Well I live in Pittsburgh, PA. They give out expired food all the time. You ate wrong the FDA does regulate food pantries. So your very mistaken. I don't care what your church does. Food banks are not always connected to churches just an F.Y.I.
@Saravannerman..Excuse my typo. The FDA does not regulate food pantries. The U.S postal even does a food drive to local food banks in our city. It is not regulated for expirations. Do you what the FDA does and how they actually operate? They regulate the production and sales of food and drugs. Maybe the Health department could get involved with your churches food bank but not the FDA.
Coconut oil can last about 24 months but only if it's refined. Maple syrup can last indefinitely if it's in a sealed glass jar. If however, it in plastic the shelf life is about 2 years, if it's in metal tins only about 6 months. Popcorn only about 2 years after that it may not pop, but you can still grind it to make cornmeal When it comes to drink mixes only those with full sugar are safe for consumption after long periods. Those made with artificial sweeteners shouldn't be consumed after expiry because they go through chemical changes that could be harmful to consume. Powdered milk shelf life is basically indefinite but only if unopened. If opened then about 2 months if it's nonfat or 2 weeks if whole fat
If it doesn't go bad for you, I would keep doing what works for you. We don't put soy sauce in the fridge and haven't had a problem, but we do go through it quickly
If it's a liquid, after you open it, store it in your fridge. Jams, jellies, ketchup, mustard, mayo, bbq sauce, anything liquidy (except for honey, that stays on my shelf year-round).
I live in Eastern Canada and make my own maple syrup every winter. Unopened it will last just about forever however once opened and exposed to oxygen, it will grow mold. This will happen eventually even in the fridge but quite quickly (maybe 4 to 6 weeks) if left at room temperature.
Booze & Coffee??? Kimmie 😱 -- Totally Kidding 😉 This was sincerely a great video...I have thrown away baking soda & soy sauce & spices before 🤦♀️ ...now I know better, thank you! 😊
I put a slice of bread in my sugar and seal it all in a zip lock bag. The sugar never hardens. Yesterday my husband discovered that the graham crackers he was eating were a year out of date. I guess I didn't rotate those in the pantry. He said they still tasted good though.
An absolute hit Kimmy with this video. Thank you much. I never thought that these products can keep forever... I'll be going to my local supermarket and stocking up. Fabulous information thank you so much. God bless you and your family and stay safe. 😀
Have you ever thought of doing a video on bartering supplies. Like things that you can trade with. Or maybe skills that you can learn to trade service with.
after few months I'm back to your channel, Girl you look awesome! you need, i used to be about the same caliber , but not anymore, post about what you did!... congratulations!

That's good to know about bouillon. Lol made a mistake ordering groceries for delivery. I wanted a bigger size jar of bouillon so I just sorted by price and got the next highest price. It was 2 POUNDS of beef bouillon. We will use it, but I definitely won't have to worry for a while about that.
@@beckiruther1213 I tried to make jello from a package that was a year or so beyond expiration. It didn’t set up. Just a bowl of clumpy, runny gel. So I don’t keep jello forever anymore. LOL 😂
That was a great video, lots of good info, also just a side note, my husband found powdered goats milk at Walmart. Most people don’t know goats milk is much more healthier than cows milk. 😉 of course fresh is best and taste great 😋
This is always a helpful topic to help reduce food waste. I'm curious what are the oldest beans you have cooked? I had an experience trying to cook some from my parents' house...it seemed I couldn't cook them long enough to be edible. Also, with old bouillon cubes, be sure to have your rolling pin handy to help bust them up (lol).
They're wonderful to keep on hand when not feeling well, and keeping up your electrolytes and water when sick as and unable to keep solids down. And if you Can keep solids down, egg noodles cook super duper quickly - I've dropped a handful of egg noodles+broth cube in a mug, and then poured boiling water over it and covered it, and after 6ish minutes (I think? Hard to keep track of time when sick lol) they're tender. Does depend on the size of egg noodle, too. 🤔
Where do you live? Kim's in Utah, as am I and in Utah it's a drier climate than some states. So our spices can last virtually forever in Utah. In a humid climate like say Maine or Florida they probably would be more likely to get moisture in there, The clumping is probably from moisture. Spices are dried, so I don't think drying out could be an issue... One suggestion is to keep them further from your stove so that steam from cooking won't get near your spices also don't use them straight from the bottle over your pan, sometimes the steam can go up into the bottle, if that makes sense... so instead maybe put it in a measuring spoon then use the measuring spoon to dump it into your recipe.
I can tell you from experience that beans, ghee, coconut oil and cinnamon do not last forever, ghee and coconut oil only have a shelf life of about 5 years. Ghee will turn white and have a sour smell and the coconut oil starts getting yellow brownish streaks through the oil when in solid form. Beans do last forever but they start to lose their vitamin content after a couple of years and after about 5 years they become tough and chewy. Cinnamon and any other ground up spices start to lose their flavour after a couple of years however whole spices can last forever, I bought nutmeg, peppercorns and cinnamon sticks in bulk 15 years ago and they taste and smell as fresh as the day I bought them. This has been my experience and research, thanks Kimmie love watching your content, God bless
Thanks for the great info! Ghee and coconut oil have been two things that I've been wanting to experiment with, but I'm not sure HOW to use them. ~ Stephanie
@@justpatty7328 I use a little coconut oil in the pan for fried eggs or scrambled . It's good for you versus the industrial seed oils like canola or veg oil.
I use coconut oil for most stovetop cooking uses. Ghee can be used as a self-stable replacement for butter. I made a big batch with $1.99 lb butter 2 years ago and I'm using it now to stretch my butter dollar today.
Cream of tartar. When combined with baking soda you have fresh baking powder. Great for long term storage.
Also cleans rust out of drain when added to a little vinegar (paste) soak then scrub.
Thanks dis not know that life saver

Great to have this list. Thank you!!!
I just learned you can mill popcorn for corn meal and flour. Also I would add wheat berries to the list.
Actually you can add a lot of the whole grains to the list as long as the are stored with no oxygen so they can’t oxidize and go rancid

This is always a helpful topic to help reduce food waste. I'm curious what are the oldest beans you have cooked? I had an experience trying to cook some from my parents' house...it seemed I couldn't cook them long enough to be edible. Also, with old bouillon cubes, be sure to have your rolling pin handy to help bust them up (lol).
You can also dissolve in hot water before adding it to your pot.
Add baking soda if the beans won’t soften. Alternatively just pressure can beans that are a few years old and then they are ready to eat
@@mush3199 did all that. Still not soft enough to eat. Probably 10 to 15 years in the pantry.
