Old Sealed Tea in a Can -- Still Good?
Posted: Jan 13th, '06, 15:31
I was at a friend's house last week and noticed they had a can of Fortnum & Mason's Royal Blend still sealed in the can, with the shrinkwrap on it. They said they received it for a wedding gift years ago but never opened it.
The bottom of the can was printed with "use by 2001", and looking at my own can of F&M's RB which is just a few months old, I saw "use by 2007", so I can surmise that the tea is at least six years old.
Is it any good? I hate to see good tea go to waste, and I'm sure they'd give it to me if I asked...
