how fresh are these can versus the ones found in stores?

As fresh as canned and sealed can be. The can I have presently is a 2018 expiration so that oughta tell you something, the exp. date is on the bottom of the can. My favorite flavor is the vanilla as it mixes well with any fruit or veggie I chose to blend with it.

There is an expiration date on the back of the can.There is no way to know it when it's bought online.It should be ok but return it if it's not good.LauraLaura

I'm not sure why Amazon asked me to answer this question for you. Maybe they think I'm a Drakes CC expert. From experience, I can tell you that if you're not buying them directly from a supermarket, they will never be as fresh. But, in the few years I've been ordering, only once did I get a box that was stale. Yes, I ate them anyway. Good luck.

Stores 3 - 5 years unopened #10 can (w/oxygen absorber) in cool, dry place. Once opened, average shelf life of 6 - 12 months

I have had mine longer than that and I don't notice that they are stale or 'bad'. I'm thinking b/c they are freeze-dried, they will last forever.

I store these in the freezer and just take out enough for a week or two to keep in the refrigerator in an air-tight container. I've had these for several months and they are still fresh when I use them. I hope this helps. Enjoy!

They are packed in cardboard boxes that look like milk cartons so, shelf life won't be as long as if it was packed in cans or glass jars. If you keep them dry they'll last quite awhile.

I keep these nuts in a tupperware container so I no longer have the original packaging for the expiration date. However, I have ordered these nuts before and they have been fresh for months when kept in the sealed container.

They last a pretty long time so I am not sure I understand the question. If kept in a dry location wrapped in plastic they stay fresh a long time.

They have a terrible shelf life. Recommended to consume soon after opening to retain texture, and they are not kidding. Tried to open a few and slowly eat out of them over a few weeks for variety and they made a big lump in the can, like fused and smelling funny. So, bonus, they aren't lying about how natural this is!

Each layer of the tin is separately wrapped to keep fresh. I had no problem with staleness.

I've had some for years and they still impart flavor. Some more than others. Keep them dry in the tins they come in.

Andrew ... I ordered a case of 12 back in March of this year,date on the individual inner packs was 3-20-2014 Soooo thats plenty of time to devour these .I'm just now on the last inner pack and its as fresh as the first one I opened.If you keep them in a cool dry place you should have no problem with the freshness.I did put them"inner packs" in zip lock bags for good measure though "just in case ".This seemed to work great for me.Hope this helps.I'm getting ready to order another case,these taste great and are good for you too.Order and ENJOY!

We keep them tightly wrapped in the freezer, except for ones to eat quickly. Those we keep in a plastic baggie and they have always been fresh when we eat them. We buy large quantities at one time, and the ones kept in the freezer last months/years.

They are dried and sealed... I have kept them in the bag sealed for a year without spoiling.... Once opened I keep on the shelf in the pantry - a dark cool place in a dry climate. If you have concerns put them in the fridg...

You cannot tell if it is fresh or the amount of time it has been on the shelf. That has been a concern of mine too. The cleanser was great, however the moisturizers I also ordered were extra thick and didn't quite seem as fresh. The price is good, but you likely will likely compromise full quality.
