After opened how long will hi-maize keep? Must I refrigerate?

I keep mine in the pantry, in a Rubbermaid container. I've had it for over a year and it doesn't seem to go "bad." It seems as shelf stable as flour or cornstarch.

I do not think it will go bad if it is sealed in a good container, like Tupperware, kept dry, and if sealed bugs will be kept out.

Same here. I used some at Christmas, and refrigerated the remaining container. Still fine. Based on similar products, as long as you keep it sealed and refrigerated after opening, it will last many months

Though the manufacturer does tell us to refrigerate it, you should be fine for just a week, unless the weather or your kitchen or is very hot. If you expect to keep it around for more than a couple of weeks, though, I would definitely refrigerate it.

I keep it in the refrigerator after opening. I've had it in there about a month, and it was fine last week when I used it to make some hummus.

Well, you could refrigerate it, but I just dump it into a bowl when I first open the jar, stir it well, return it to the jar, then refrigerate.

Yes, after opening, otherwise it won't last very long. If you leave it out overnight or something, don't worry about it too much, just get it back in the fridge. It may lessen the life, but not by much.

No it does not need to refrigerated after opening. Actually honey has been named one of the products that you can keep forever in your pantry and it never spoils. By the way it is a great tasting honey.

Granted I eat mine pretty quick but the longest I've had one open and not refrigerated is 3 months and it was just fine. If you do something like make your own Vegemite CheesyBite with cream-cheese then it definitely should be refrigerated but for the most part it seem very shelf stable.

I always refrigerate mine after opening, once I didn't and got mold growing on top, so every since in the fridge it goes once opened...plus it gives it a better shelf life, and keeps the nutrients intake. . .

Hello yes it does need to refrigerated after opening. It reads so on the bottle. I have it and think it is a great product. I will be purchasing again. Thank you!

The bottle says "Do not keep in refrigerator", so I just stored it like honey or cereal at room temperature. And just like honey, it will remain fresh all the time until you finish the bottle.

They recommend refrigerating an open jar. It only lasts 3 months in the fridge after it is opened.

Youjin, it will keep about 6 to 8 months...and, since they're live cultures, I don't think it matters if it's opened or not. And you shouldn't try to freeze it.

I have not refrigerated it, keep it in a dark, cool pantry, tightly closed and it is fine. Good luck

I always refrigerate mine. Not sure what the shelf life is, as it doesn't last that long in our home.

You can safely store up to two days, but you need to fill a container all the way up. I use mason jars because of the airtight seal

I don't really know. It needs to be refrigerated after opening, but the "best by" date is over two years out.
