What is the shelf life if left unopened?

I don't know the shelf life of a 50-lb bag, if left unopened. We opened ours on 13 February 2014, filled the steel cut oats into any large (preferably glass) jars with screw-top lids, and as of today we have about 3 to 4 cups left. It saved many trips to Whole Foods where we used to buy it from their self-serve open containers. When we re-order, we'll ask if ORGANIC is available. Quality was good in our transferred-to-glass-jars oats. No bugs.

I usually leave the box opened for a ~3 months maybe 4 the most as I consume a LOT of it. I haven't noticed any problems in that timeframe as the little grains are as hard as the day I opened the bag and taste as good as the first day. I suppose if you can, use large jars of sorts to prevent too much moisture to get in the grains. Pablo

I store mine in 5 gallon buckets with sealed lids in a cool dry place, it keeps great for 1 year as its used up by then.

I don't know for sure, but I store UNOPENED packets in the pantry. After one is opened I keep it in the refrigerator.

Refrigerated after opening in a sealed bag. It should last until you use it up.......

Probably indefinite. As long as it's kept dry there's nothing that can go bad, it's like storing sugar. If you're using it in recipes it won't last long enough to worry about shelf life.

It has a long shelf life if unopened. After opening it's recommended to refrigerate and use in three days. My experience when ordering from Amazon is expiration dates almost a year out.

Container says to store in refrigerator and that shelf life is 8 months. My reading of this is 8 months opened or unopened they are "live" cultures.

I am uncertain of the shelf life. We used one and did not open the other for at least two weeks and it was still fresh.

shelf life is dated on the container: I think a year. Does not have to be kept in the refirgierator..They are great!

Formula in an unopened can usually doesn't expire for about 2 years from when it was packaged. Once you open it though it is best to use it within about 1 month to 6 weeks time.

The brand I bought had an expiration date. That date was several years. Mine have lasted at least a year if unopened.

There is no information on the bag, or expiration date, but I would expect the shelf life of an unopened bag would be almost indefinite if kept in a cool, dry place. If you are using the tea regularly, its quality should be fine for as long as it takes you to use a bag. They are dried herbs, so again, store in a cool, dry place and it should be fine.

If the jar is unopened, it keeps quite a while beyond expirary, six months plus. Once opened, it should be refrigerated. In the fridge it keeps for months, which is nice if you're the only person in the house who enjoys it!!

Unopened, it will stay for 15 years. Opened, the website says it will stay viable for up to 12 months.

It doesn't need to be refrigerated. I am not sure of the shelf life, but I believe it has an expiration date.
