There IS a formula for figuring out the "best if eaten by" date on Keystone meats, but I have not found it yet. I have not tried the meat yet, but I have seen many sites where people are very impressed with the taste. AND there's NO extra ingredients: Meat, Salt......no modified food start, no coloring.......<br /><br />In general, I've seen other comments that Keystone meats have a 5 year shelf life.

This will work fine for many people.<br /><br />Thank you for this info Matthew....ice4safety.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08422639414735708031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4108475922845983855.post-45653621866059857002011-03-11T10:46:47.198-05:002011-03-11T10:46:47.198-05:00Great article - but I thought I'd mention you ...Great article - but I thought I'd mention you can actually do this yourself. We buy fresh chicken breasts and use a pressure cooker to can them. It's cost effective, lower in sodium (most commercial meat canners add sodium because they think it will help the meat last longer), and it lasts for quite a while.<br /><br />I'm with you - I'd eat some of our canned chicken that is 3, 4, or 5 years old - but I'm not looking to set any World Records at the risk of wrecking my GI tract. LOL!<br /><br />Here's a link that describes the process in detail.<br />http://www.preparednesspro.com/blog/step-by-step-meat-canning/Matthew Wilsonhttp://www.contactestablished.comnoreply@blogger.com
