Is there an expiration date on the can? How many years will these store?

I found no expiration date on the can. The onion pieces are quite dry, and I think if kept in a cool dry spot will last for a while. I may actually buy a "desiccant pouch" to put in the can to help. As a guess I would say at least 2 years.

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

Unopened, probably 10 + years. We use dehydrated onions all the time. Huntsville is an excellent brand for dehydrated and freeze dried products.

My container does not have an expiration date. I have had containers of these for over 6 months and they're still good.

The cans I rec'd last week have expiration of 4/16/16. They will not last that long in our house!

There is no expiration date. If you look online you can deduce the "manufactured" date. They can be good for up to ten years but it depends on the temperature, etc. in which they are stored. Again, refer to sites about this. As a retired military member I can tell you that I will probably consume mine within 5 years and replenish my stock .

I store them for up to a year but there is a shelf life date on the bottle.

This product is not designed for extreme long term storage. I have purchased this several times and the use by date on the can's has varied one to two years from purchase date. Hope this answers your question.

Don't know the answer...not sure anyone does. A quote from the National Cannery Association: "Canned food has a shelf life of at least two years from the date of processing. Canned food retains its safety and nutritional value well beyond two years, but it may have some variation in quality, such as a change of colour and texture. Canning is a high-heat process that renders the food commercially sterile. Food safety is not an issue in products kept on the shelf or in the pantry for long periods of time. In fact, canned food has an almost indefinite shelf life at moderate temperatures (75 F and below). Canned food as old as 100 years has been found in sunken ships and it is still microbiologically safe! We don't recommend keeping canned food for 100 years, but if the can is intact, not dented or bulging, it is edible."

From what I've read, the are good for about 2 years, but look at what the expiration printed on the cans you buy are (its depends on when they were canned). When I open the can, I put every thing I don't use then into small (serving size) zip lock bags, squeeze out the excess air, and put them in the freezer. These are really for an emergency, or a camping trip (most of the time when I open the can, it always gets used up pretty soon).Hope this helps.

Formula in an unopened can usually doesn't expire for about 2 years from when it was packaged. Once you open it though it is best to use it within about 1 month to 6 weeks time.

I do not see an expiration date on the package. But being a dried product, I would think, if stored properly, they would last quite a while.

Might be the date it was made. My can says 111313-05. If you look on the bottom of the label it has a "best used by" date and sealed shelf life:3 years. Unsealed 2 months. Hope this helps

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.

There is a best use by date printed at the bottom of the can. I bought mine about 3 months ago and the best use by date is late 2016. It looks like it is not related to when you open the can but is based on date of manufacture and it is about 2-3 yrs away.

I don't know of an actual expiration date. But, they have a shelf (unused) life of 10 years.

Look at the expiration date at the bottom of the box...then that's how long you can store them or use them before the said date.

They appear to last a very long time, as long as you keep them in a sealed bag. It doesn't appear to have an expiration date on them. However, I'm sure they have some sort of arbitrary date listed somewhere.

Idk, to be honest, I dont think they expire, unless you are going to leave that there for 3-4 years. I already used mine
