Boiled maple sap, roughly forty parts sap to one of syrup. Glass keeps it twice as long as plastic, because plastic lets oxygen through and glass does not.
How long it keeps
Unopened, this keeps 4 years — which is what puts it on the long shelf.
| As sold | Unopened, in the cupboard | Once opened |
|---|---|---|
| unopened, glass | 4 years | — |
| unopened, plastic | 2 years | — |
Counted from the date on the package. Figures are the USDA FSIS FoodKeeper table's, for unopened storage at room temperature; FoodKeeper counts a month as 30 days.
The table was not pulled from USDA — fsis.usda.gov answers 403 to non-browser clients from this machine — so it came from a mirror of the data.gov dataset and its vintage is unverified. Treat a single figure as indicative, not as a use-by date.
