FAQ
Product
Q. How long can I store a jar of your product?

A. It is the nature of packaged food products to experience some slight color and flavor degradation during extended storage. Products should be stored in cool (50° F to 60° F preferable, but should not exceed 75° F for extended periods) and should not be exposed to direct sunlight. Most of our fruit spreads and ice cream toppings have a shelf life of 24 months from the date of production, and our peanut butters have a shelf life of nine months from the date of production. However, in order to obtain maximum color and flavor of our products, we do recommend consuming them within one year of the purchase date.

If you have more questions regarding date codes or shelf life of our products, please call our Consumer Relations Department.
