Spices
Whether were talking ground spices or whole spices matters.
Check the expiration dates of all of your spices and take inventory of frequently used spices.
This will ensure your spice rack is properly stocked for the cooking season ahead.
Flour
We have bad news:Your flour is probably expired.
As USDA points out, many canned goods can last for years, though there is a caveat.
Dents, rust, and swelling are all signs your canned goods are no longer safe for consumption.
Afterall, there are few things as unappetizing as a spoonful of stale cereal.
To get more time out of your cereal once opened, store it in an air-tight container.
