Unopened expired Furikake from 06/2022 – safe to eat?

9 comments

1. probably safe to consume, but since the shelf life has been exceeded you should expect an off flavour. I recommend to simply buy a new package… It does not cost much but you get a save and tastier product in exchange.

2. Does it pass the smell test? If so does it taste ok? Trust your senses they’re there to help you decide if you need to throw it out

3. I’d bet on safe, but I’d junk it if there was any “off-ness” when preparing it.

4. I’m eating some from 2022. I’m still alive

5. If it’s unopened then it’s absolutely fine. Just try to use it as soon as possible once you do open it up.

6. Yeah its just dried veg and sea weed

7. It’ll probably be perfectly fine. Expiration dates don’t mean when the food goes bad; it is a very conservative estimate by the manufacturer when the product will start to have a noticeable drop in quality. You will probably freak out by how expired some foodstuff is in my pantry haha. I gotta deal with it.

8. I would have no qualms.

9. I imagine it’d be fine but just blander than normal .
