I’m a bachelor who probably doesn’t clean out my refrigerator often enough. Okay, definitely doesn’t clean out my fridge. There might be food in there that is past its expiration date.

There are 6 foods that NEVER expire. We don’t have to worry about their expiration or use by dates. Praise the Lord.

#1. VINEGAR is a fermented product that never expires. You can’t use the sniff test on vinegar. it always smells bad. No need for concern.

#2. WHITE RICE can last 25 to 30 years if kept cool. It can last up to 10 years if not kept cool.

#3. SUGAR does not go bad. Sweet!

#4. SALT cab be kept in the pantry without concern.

#5. VANILLA EXTRACT doesn’t expire because of its alcohol content. In fact it becomes more flavorful.

#6. HONEY rarely expires, but it must be kept in a sealed container.

Now I’m feeling inspired to clean out my fridge.
Wonder what that green stuff in the back is. Hmmm?
