Ask Heidi question
From Karen
Is corn meal bad if it expired in april 2013 even if its been opened?
According to the Ohio State University Extension, cornmeal should be kept in a zipper-lock bag stored in the freezer to prevent the oil in the product from becoming rancid. The cornmeal can be kept for 12 months.
I would discard the cornmeal. Remember the adage, if in doubt, throw it out.
I got to thinking about cornstarch since I make my own chocolate cornstarch pudding.
Cornstarch 18 months. Keep tightly closed.
