Does Cake Mix Go Bad?


I guess I should start looking through my cupboards. Does anyone have older stuff sitting around?

Well, we found out over Christmas that out-dated corn meal makes stale tasting corn muffins....

I finally threw out spices that I had moved from New York to Saskatchewan to Fergus Falls... (you never know when you need "poultry seasoning")..

opps. THAT was old.

I LOVE that you took a picture of this!!! Funny. Wait till a few years down the road when you find some random can of baby formula tucked in the back somewhere... :)

Had to look...
Brownie mix: 19Oct2003

It was behind 6 other boxes of cake and brownie mixes.

Yes, I throw it out.

Nah, I'm sure it's fine. :)

I once had a roommate who had the same belief that I have -if it doesn't have visible mold, it's probably okay. But, I don't know if that's the best advice... I once made Rice Krispie bars with some friends and we broke the knife cutting them. I think it was the stale marshmallows...
