Is canning and jarring supposed to preserve it forever? Or does it have a shelf life that’s not indicated anywhere on the can/jar? I have some old cans of Chunky Clam Chowder soup, I’m guessing it’s about 5 years old. Also some jarred spaghetti sauce around the same age. They don’t look any worse for wear. In my bachelor days I likely would have eaten them without any afterthought. I’m not as young as I used to be anymore though…
I guess I wasn’t clear when I said “not indicated anywhere on the can/jar”, but I don’t see any dates on them.
