So, you bought a two-year supply of the dried cannery soup. You went home, confidently whipped up a batch, served it proudly to the family only to discover that it tastes just a bit like bath water. What to do?

Rebecca, I pulled down a can from my pantry. It says, “Best if used within five years.” That said, the can was processed in 2004 and it tastes the same as it did before. It’s just dried beans, pasta, and such, so not much going on with it. 🙂
