    Default Shelf Life

    Amy, thanks for the link in Roxie's post about shelf life. I bookmarked that site.

    I was curious though, does anyone have any idea how long OPEN items last? I mean like salad dressings, pickles, salsas, taco sauces and the like? Sometimes I throw things away because I have no idea how long these things have been on my fridge door and I'm afraid of getting sick.

    I'm thinking of putting a permanent marker permanently on my fridge so as to mark down opening dates.

    TIA for answering.

    I was unable to edit my post.
    Just wanted to add that there are tabs at the top of the page for shelf life of other foods. Didn't want you to miss it.
