I may be mistaken but does honey have an > expiring data at all? We are obliged to put a "best before" date (EU). Then it is a matter of judgement. Are we likely to get a complaint if the lid is left off and it ferments or goes cloudy or sets if it starts as clear? My preference is to set a couple of years for clear and 3 for set. I also add to the label after the best before date, a suggestion that the lid is replaced tightly after use and if it goes cloudy to warm it overnight. -- Visit www.honeybeeworld.com/bee-l for rules, FAQ and other info ---
