I was seeing a client about developing a farm shop web site yesterday, and one of the subjects coveres was shelf life. They sell fabulous sticky toffee puddings, and I was asking how long they kept, because they could conceiveably get an order from anywhere in the world. I was quite surprised to learn that the puddings have an 8 week shelf life when refrigerated, and they had actually eaten them still in perfect condition after 12 weeks. That's good pudding life.
But nothing to the shelf life of some tinned chicken in this news story. It was 50 years old, and had been kept specially by a couple who were celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary. The tinned chicken (whole, in it's own juices) had been part of a wedding hamper they received, and on that day they had vowed to eat it on their 50th wedding celebration, if they were still together. What a heartwarming story, and I hope the inevitable slow nasty death of the loving couple over the next few days doesn't detract from the joy of the occasion.
I have a thing about best before dates. For instance cheese sold in most supermarkets is vastly under ripe. The ONLY way to get a descent bit of super market bire or stilton is to buy it from the reduced well and leave it for a week or so. Also, yogurt - it off that's the point. More off - is more yogurty. See also Beer, wine, and in some cases beef which is always too red when sold in supermarkets. There rant over.

Please let me marry a man who will save a nice bottle of wine to drink on our 50th anniversary rather than canned poultry...

Yes - as long as it's a wine that keeps.

I don't think I have any hope of another 50 years, so I think I'll just keep on eating and drinking before I run out of shelf life...

I invested money in some programs which are placed on this site.
On a site written that it is the program which helps make money online.
It really works?
