Sometimes we throw away some foods that have been in the pantry for a long time without knowing that these products are likely to last forever. If in doubt it is always better to respect the expiration date of the label to avoid risk.
According to the Spanish newspaper La Vanguardia, these are some of the foods we can store for a long time, provided they are properly preserved:
– Rice
– Coffee
– Sugar (set aside in a cool, dry place)
– Salt
– Pure dark chocolate
– Spices
– Olive oil
– Honey

That’s great to know! Maybe tea can be added to the list?
I know that honey can last for centuries if kept well like in a sealed jar or bottle.
I am not sure if anything in this world can last for ever. It applies to some items listed by you as well.
I read that it was found honey in Egypt pyramides that was still good to eat. It is amazing!
The storage has a lot to do with how long it will last.
A long time is of course relative! But stored properly many things last a long time!
I agree but there must be proper storing facilities.
I always check expiration date it does really matter
I believe that oil can get rancid. I am going to have to look that one up.
