Forgotten Cans in the Pantry
Most kitchens have at least one forgotten can of beans, soup, or vegetables sitting in the back of the pantry. When people notice the printed date has passed, the instinct is to toss it. But is that really necessary?
What Expiration Dates Really Mean
The first thing to know: most dates on canned food labels refer to quality, not safety.
“Best By” or “Best Before” – Indicates peak flavor and texture.
“Use By” – Common on perishable foods like dairy or meat. It marks best quality, not a hard safety deadline.
So, if your canned soup is “past date,” don’t panic. It could still be safe.
Shelf Life of Canned Foods
When stored properly—in a cool, dry place away from sunlight—canned foods last far beyond their printed date.
