BibleBeltCatholicMom Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 1. Dried dates, 2 months old, stored (not vacuum sealed or anything) in a jar. 2. Date jewels, 2 months old, made with dried dates, cocoa, shredded coconut, almonds all ground together stored as above. Found thenm in the back of the pantry and, remember how delicious they were, want to eat them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pink Fairy Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Already opened? If so, meant to be refrigerated after opening? In the end, I guess I'd do a smell test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thescrappyhomeschooler Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Hmmmm. Maybe. If they looked and smelled okay, I might try one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiana Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 As long as they didn't look or smell moldy, I'd try one. Look at the ones in the center of the bag as well as the edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stripe Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 I would have no qualms about item #1. I eat old dried dates all the time. The ones at the store are generally not that fresh. Are the jewels homemade or storebought? I might hesitate for an old homemade thing because it's often not quite so hygenically assembled (people touching with bare hands) as a manufactured thing.

BibleBeltCatholicMom Posted October 20, 2012 Author Share Posted October 20, 2012 Oh, yes, they are homemade. hmmm . . . I'm going to use the dates, they look as if I just bought them but the jewels have a slight tartness that they didn't previously have. I'll toss them. There were only two left anyway. Thanks! I wasn't sure I could work up the nerve to taste one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
