I see the word 'perishable' but what is the shelf life of this product?

It arrives very cool as they pack packets previously frozen inside the box. I keep mine in the freezer. Absolutely a great product. I will buy it again and again although it lasts a long time.I'm very frugal with mine.

Duck fat, when refrigerated or frozen, can have an almost limitless shelf life much like butter or ghee. In the case of duck fat it will often be used for confit, strained and refrigerated for later use. It's probably listed as perishable because the likelihood it would go rancid in standard shipping without temperature control would be highly variable.

We suggest 6 months in the refrigerator and 18 months in the freezer. We recommend storing it in the freezer. When you go in the bucket, the area where you spoon out may become contaminated but the rest of the fat will still be good. Enjoy!

It should be refridgerated to keep it from turning bad. If left in the fridge, it's fine.

Hello Cecille;I never checked for the expiration, but usually on perishables it's on the back or bottom of the package in question. I hope this helps you.

I don't refrigerate this. But not sure of the shelf life. I've had it about a year already

yes there is a shelf life I guess. Mine said Oct. 2014 which probably wasn't even a year after I got it.

Over a year, from the date on the last one I bought. I got it about 2 months ago.....and the "Best by" date is Aug 2016. I think that as long as you keep it dry, there is not too much that can go bad. And that would seem to corroborated by the long shelf life. Hope this helps.

I don't know what the maker suggests as a shelf life, but the product is freeze dried and sealed in a waxed container so you can count on it being good for a long time....

I'm not sure. We are sailors and plan to take it with us when we move aboard our boat. It is my understanding that the shelf life is about a year. It is an excellent product.

The shelf life is at least two years for this product. The bottle I have is good until the end of 2014 and I have had it for a month or two.

I do not know the published shelf life, but I have used one year old product which worked just fine. You might want to check with manufactuor or review product data sheet.

I am not sure of the shelf life. I had to stop using it because it hurt my skin (made it feel like it was burning).

It has a very long shelf life ... My last purchase this year has an expiration of 7/2016 If you have a bag..it's located on the back at the bottom.

Hey Patricia. There is no shelf life. I would just refrigerate after you open the container.

According to the package shelf life is one year. However, I have some a year past the expiration date and I'm still here!

I believe it has a shelf life of over one year, maybe more! ...that's my experience, works great each time.. I buy several each yr for my use.

I use the product very sparingly so a 1 lb container lasts me a very long time. I have successfully kept it without refrigeration and with no detectable loss in taste or quality for over a year.
