Groceries with surprisingly long shelf lives

The National Honey Board says that honey stored in tightly sealed containers can last decades, and even centuries. However, it will darken and lose its aroma and flavor or crystalize if it’s not properly processed, packaged and stored. Therefore, a shelf life of two years is often printed on the label. Pro tip: Crystalized honey can be brought back to liquid form by placing the honey container in a pot of hot water. Glass containers work best when reheating, but plastic will work too.
