Canned corn is a pantry staple with a surprisingly long shelf life. You can safely eat it for up to two years after its “Best By” date, as long as the cans have been stored in a cool, dry place and aren’t damaged. Over time, you may notice a slight change in taste or texture, but the food will still be safe to eat.
Canned Green Beans
Similar to corn, canned green beans can last for up to two years past their “Best By” date if the cans are in good condition. Like with any older canned food, “you may notice a little difference in taste and quality” over time.
Canned Tuna
Known for its versatility and high protein content, canned tuna can last even longer—from three to five years beyond its “Best By” date. Again, proper storage is key. “Still, expect a drop in quality with extended storage.”
