Half of all doomsday preppers will die of botulism or related food poisoning because of wrong canning methods and therefore sample food regularly.
Quoting: nightrunner Oh really i ate just a few days ago my out of date canned fish which according to the date put on the cans was overdue by at least 2 years.
And it was still intact and pretty heatlthy to eat...
But i would go much than two years over the limit.
Anyway i was amazed to see that canned fish could still be eatable after being there in my room for 3 - 4 years.
Same thing with the honey. It remained eatable and frankly became even better as the yellow color turned into dark red.
Perhaps it oxidized i don't know but surprisingly i loved the taste of that old honey.The only thing i didn't dare to touch was the canned tomato which became poisonous i think as the canned literally strated to crack whith time and molds started to appear.
So hear is my advice NO CANNED VEGATABLES under any circomstances!!!!
No chocolate either. The chocolate was barely eatable after laying there for 4 years this was a surprise for me i thought the chocolate would be in better shape than the canned fish but no it perished more quickly.
So in my opninion honey is the best thing to hord take it or leave it.
At least you don't have to worry it it will degrade over time.
But remember vegetables will become poisonous!
So don't hord canned vegetables same thing goes for chocolate!
Go for the honey! Oh yes sweet honey!
