Does this product require refrigeration? And what is the shelf life?

No you don't need to refridgerate unless you add the liquid that is required to use. This is packaged as dehydrated and add water to use when ready. The shelf life was two years on the ones I received. It is a wonderful product and makes wonderful patties for the BBQ or to make a meatloaf or add sausage seasonings and make sausage crumble. Love it.Thanks B. Kaplan

It only requires refrigeration (15 minutes) once you add water. Until then the packets can sit in the pantry. The ones I have in my cupboard were purchased from my local grocery store in March and they expire in August.

No not until you make it then it does. A long time. I found this product to be non-agreeable and just generally toxic to the human body. I do not recommend it, even for animals. One must remember when considering consuming any soy product. "That the inventor of the soy bean, warned the F D A that it and or derivatives there of should not be consumed by humans ever" See; the invention of polyester fabric

It doesn't require refrigeration. I store it in my cupboard. I purchased it in November 2013. The expiration is July 2015. It is well and beautifully packaged. I have no complaints about this product.

Once you mix with water it does need refrigeration. In dry form it does not. We have packages 6 months old that are still fresh tasting.

The packets don't require refrigeration as it is a dry mix. I have used up mine so don't know about expiration dates on the product but I am sure they can be on the shelf for at least a year.

It doesn't need to be refrigerated after opening. I would imagine it would last a long time but I'm not the best to answer that part because mine is gone within a month! Actually, yes it does last. I have another flavor that I don't use as much and it's just fine.

It needs to be stored in a cool, dry place. I've never refrigerated it. The jar I just received has a two year pull date; copy on the label says to use within two years of opening.

No this product does not need refrigeration at any time as it is naturally fermented and is a good source of pro-biotic nutrients as well as being low in sodium .

Don't know the shelf life. You might want to ask the manufacturer. I kept it refrigerated after I opened it.

No refrigeration necessary. I've been using this product for a year and never refrigerated it and there is nothing on the packaging (purchased locally or Amazon--same product) that tells you to do so. Amazon has great pricing!

I don't think that means it has to be refrigerated. I just think it means that it is safe to consume. I don't remember seeing a refrigerate after opening label on the bottle when i got it. Hope that helps.

Don't need to refrigerate. Just be sure to check the "Use by.." date as it will go bad at some time down the road. The one drawback to this product is the shorter shelf life.

Does not need to be refrigerated. I used it up pretty quickly so I'm not sure about shelf life. But it was in my pantry for maybe 2 months

According to the manufacturer, it doesn't need refrigeration since it's a fermented product. Since it's not "perishable" only the manufacturing date is listed on the product, so I don't think you have any worries about it going bad or losing its potency for a very long time.

No, it doesn't need refrigerated. Just a note, if you like your drink sweet, it takes a LOT of the sweetener.

Yes, this product needs to be refrigerated. Says so right on the bottle " Keep Refrigerated". If you purchase this product on Amazon and the listing says "Fulfilled by Amazon" it has not been refrigerated. It was kept in and shipped from Amazon's warehouse. The response from Green Pharmacy is incorrect as are the instructions on the Empirical Labs website that say "refrigerate after opening" according to Dave at Emperical labs. According to Dave, he has asked his web people to change the wording on the web site and that takes time but he has put the necessary paper work in to have it changed.

I don't think this needs to be refrigerated. We keep it in our cabinet and haven't noticed any deterioration of the product as a result.

Yes, it needs to be refrigerated after you receive it. There is no expiration date on the product. It works great and it's made in the USA!

No refrigeration needed. The oil will solidify if cooled. I have mine in my kitchen cabinet. If kept tightly closed it should be good for a year or so. I use it in the lawn and vegetable garden to keep pests and slugs away from my fruit. So my bottle lasts me a growing season with a little left over. The left over works fine the following season. After a year it might loose some of its pesticide potency. This is so much better than those chemical pesticides.

Hi, there---It does not require refrigeration, and I usually don't refrigerate it. However, I have done so before, as it feels nice if you are using for a sunburn, on your face for acne or irritation, etc. I love this product and brand, and I use it everyday on my face. Hope this helps!
