I saw it.
Thanks.

But I have to say I am always suspicious of a list that has an expiration date for SALT.

What’s gonna happen? Somebody gonna open it 100 years from now and say “Dang... it turned to garlic powder!”

But the fact is that most foods have a MUCH longer shelf life than what’s on the package if they remain cool and dry and unopened away from the bugs!

I’ve been wondering about storing cooked bacon in jars.

I mean I’ve bought the jars of bacon bits and they have a one year shelf life stamped on them, probably good for longer than that.

And In cooking bacon, you take it to temps that NOTHING could survive. Not any of the normal bugs that cause food-borne illnesses, not botulism.

If it was cooked to a good crisp, set on paper towels to drain a bit, and then the slices put into jars, it ought to last a heck of a long time.

I know lard, as long as it is unopened, has a long shelf life 5-10 years or more...
