Always use precaution! If there is doubt THROW IT OUT!! There is no amount of money worth your health or your family’s.
***Most products need to be stored in a cool and dry place. The least amount of sunlight is best. Most products need to also be in an airtight package!
I have used information I have found through the USDA and by the University of Missouri Extension Service.
