Once opened, how long will these last in the refrigerator before they spoil?

I never even put them in the fridge. Since they are freeze-dried they stay good as long as you seal it. I got it in december and they are still good!

They are freeze dried so refrigeration is not required. I ordered mine at Christmas last year and they are still fine.

These are freeze dried meaning no refrigeration needed and no spoilage. 1 bag usually lasts two weeks.

I don't refrigerate them, even if it takes a couple of weeks to finish the bag, and I've never had a problem. They're dehydrated. But bear in mind, even if the picture shows them sliced up, if it doesn't say "filets" or sliced, what you will probably get is WHOLE turkey hearts. This happened to me, and a whole one is too much for my dog, so I had to slice them. The company acknowledged that the picture misrepresented the product, and they said they would change the picture, but last time I checked they hadn't. As of a couple of days ago, the sliced ones were unavailable. That said, whether they're sliced when they arrive, or if I have to slice them myself, my dog loves them.

I dont know the shelf life of an un opened bag. I go through the 4 pounds about every 4 months and even the last one opened seems fresh as the first one. I have not had a problem with spoilage. They are dry seeds, dont see any need for refrigeration.

It depends on how you store them, and how much of a perfectionist you are. I vacuum seal them in quart mason jars as soon as I receive them, and store them in a low cool cabinet. They are fine for 6 months.

They should be ok for a month as long as you keep them in a refridgerator. However, using them as soon as they are shipped to you is optimal.

I have had them last months in my pantry after opening. About four or five helpings worth can last a few weeks after hydration in my fridge.

I store in the refrigerator, but I don't think I'd keep them for more than three months. I don't know anything about the expiration date.

I only kept mine refrigerated after opening them. Otherwise, they were good sealed at room temperature.

I would refrigerate them until you want to use them. I've had them all sitting out for about 4 months in the carrier and some have lost their flavor

I keep un-opened packets in freezer for at least 4 months and maximum 6 months without any rancid or bad taste. Only opened packet I keep in refrigerator.

They have a very long shelf life, even after they have been opened. My bottle has an expiry date of 04.2015 and I purchased them back in 2013.I don't even know if they need to be refrigerated.

The ones I bought last month say they are good through October 2015, but I'm assuming that's unopened. Once opened I would just freeze them!

It depends on the temperature that you store them at. regular room temp they are good for between 5-6 years. in the fridge they are good for 7 years. In the hot desert sun they are good for a year or less.

I didn't refrigerate them and they tasted good for at least a week because I kept the bag sealed (I can't remember if I sealed them in its own bag or in a zip lock bag.) But after that I don't know. I forgot about them after that and worried about getting sick so I threw them out. But I know for a week for sure.

They come in vacuum sealed individual packages, I cannot find any information on shelf life.

No, not before opening. After they are opened (if not finished) they need to be refrigerated.

depends when you get them, but I have a bottle from last year with an expiration date of 06/16. You are supposed to keep them refrigerated I think, once opening them.

To keep them fresh, I put them in a large zip loc bag and kept them in the cupboard. They are dried so there is no need to refrigerate or anything like that. It took me about 3 months to use all of them up and they remained fresh during that time. I would think they could be used much longer as long you keep them in a sealed storage bag. They won't get moldy or spoiled.
