Foods with the longest expiration dates

Contributor: Jul!a Jul!a
Obviously there are some things you should get rid of if you haven't used them by a certain time, but there are some foods that can last years apparently, and not all of them are chocked full of preservatives either. You should check out this list to see what you can keep around and not have to make sure you burn through right away. And no, Twinkies don't last forever

Well, bummer about the Twinkies :-(

I do love, though, that Coca Cola will take "an extraordinarily long time to expire." Just what is an extraordinarily long time?

That was interesting information about the homey expiring whether it was opened or not!

I'm not sure to be honest, but I'm guessing more than a few years since they mention that other things on the list last 2 years or more lol.

"Some vessels that were uncorked by the archaeologists still contained thick oil, and honey that was almost liquid but still preserved it scent after thousands of years."
