Picked up three more cans of Ham (had coupon at Dollar General) to add to storage with best use by date of May 2019. Still have the DAK canned ham with about two years left on date stamp.
We sorted through our kitchen pantry today and I noticed two cans of Spam were swelled up. Since we bought a small case back in 2012 the Best Use by date is March 2015. We split the case into two locations in the house. Some cans went to our regular everyday pantry and the rest went to our medium term storage closet. The cans that are in the dark closet look great, but as I stated the cans in the kitchen pantry are swelled up like they are about to explode. So those two got tossed. The point here is that it really makes a difference where you store food. When they say cool, dark, dry place is best, it makes all the difference in the world.
