Expiration & Storage Tips
When does Easy Mac expire?
Easy Mac is a type of processed food, thus it possesses a relatively long shelf life. Unopened, it could last up to a year when stored in a cool, dry place. In relation to the printed expiration date, it's commonly safe to consume within two to three months past this. However, once opened, it's ideal to consume immediately as it might lose its flavor and quality over time. Storing it in the freezer isn't typically done for this kind of product
How do you tell if Easy Mac is bad?
Signals of a spoiled Easy Mac can vary. If you notice an unusual smell, discoloration, or mold, it's time to throw it away. The cheese powder might also clump together and the macaroni might become hard. Taste and texture also change over time, as they become stale or taste off.
