It does have an expiration date however it is very long, I've had a container in my closet now for over a year and it is still good.

HRS has a shelf life of 18 months - 2 years. I understand that can also be frozen. If you are using it for home use, not so often, then just purchase the small tubs (2-3 lbs rather than the 50 lb block of Sweetex) and store it in the refrigerator, or if you can't sacrifice real estate in the fridge, in a cool, dry area. Do the sniff test...if there is no odor, it is fine...if you smell a rancid odor...then it has to go. I will tell you, it makes ALL the difference in buttercream...soooo much better than Crisco! I don't know what to do with my can of Crisco now...lol.

There is a BB (date) in small print on the side of the label. I've had for nearly a year now and still good.

I had my tub for about a year. No issues with it at all. Kept it in a cool dark cupboard. It can be frozen if you don't use often. If you try that, break it down into 1 cup increments, wrap in plastic and freeze in a Ziploc with as little air as possible so you can take out only what you need to defrost.

The container I received had no expiration date on it. I treat it as though it is like any other shortening product. I do keep mine in the fridge.

It does not have an expiration date on the container but here is a phone number to Kitchen Krafts 1-800-776-0575. It did make a difference in my frosting. Much better taste then when I used Crisco.

No expiration date on the package I don't think but hi ratio lasts around 12 months if stored properly I believe.

No, there is no expiration date. I asked the retailer where i got mine from

The brand I bought had an expiration date. That date was several years. Mine have lasted at least a year if unopened.

Nope, no expiration date. Not good, maybe the can I just received is already 10 years old.How would we know?

I am not sure about expiration. It lasts for quite long time. Mine still works until now and I bought this long time ago.

I can't tell you if it expires or not because we use it under the sink and keep it in the resealable bag. We've had it for over 6 months and it is still awesome and smells amazing. Great product, helped with my son's scar reduction big time.

No expiration date on the container. I have had this for over 6 months with no issue.

It has a "Best if used by " expiration date. I bought mine over a year ago and it has Jan 19 2014.

I didn't see one, but considering it is basically dirt, I am not sure it would expire. ;)

Doesn't have expiration date but of you uses it constantly ( twice a day). Should run out before it gets bad.

I don't see expiration date, but I do see the packaging has copyright ©2012. I can tell you when it runs out if you want.

I no longer have the box that mine came in so I can't find an official expiration date. But, I opened mine and used it back in early April (2014) and I just checked it and it's still good. No rancid smell, hasn't all dried up (I mean, you have to reapply water to use it but once I did that it works fine). Unopened I bet it lasts for a very long time. It's a great product.

I don't think it will expire, but you can always contact the manufacture and ask.

Not on mine; I have turned it every which way and don't find any expiration date. And yes, it is very, very effective!

Yes it does have an expiration date, not sure how long though. My girlfriend carries it with her and she is not here so I don't have access to it right now.

I don't remember the Expiration date, as I've already used it all up, but I've been using this product for all my 3 kids, and have never had an issue with it expiring. It lasts fine, I keep a bottle in my purse/diaper bag, and another in the nursery. Once I open it, I'm guessing it's usually open a month-3 months before it's used up and it seems to stay fresh and effective. Great remedy!!

As far as I know there is no expiration on this product. But I've normally used it within 6 months.
