Spices & Herbs Shelf Life

Wondering if your spices / herbs are too old? If there isn't a "best by" date on the bottom of the container, here are some tips for McCormick & Shilling products... note the average shelf life is no longer than 4 years.  If the container is tin (except pepper) it is at least 15 years old.  Check the address of the manufacturer...if it is from Baltimore it is 15 years old.   All Shilling products are at least 7 years old.  For more information click here.
