These are dry product so time has no take on them. Just store them properly.

12) Cheese

Even if it looks moldy, you can still eat it. Yetn the taste will be better if you eat it before the best-before date or two weeks after. After two weeks, the texture will be different and the taste will not be quite the same.

13) Cornmeal

You can use it as much as you want to over time.

14) Salt
