If you enjoy saving money, it's well worth the trip! As for food past the expiration date, I teach…read moremy students four rules. The general guideline is you can eat most canned foods from 1 to 5 years after the expiration date if stored in a cool, dark place and the cans are in good condition. However, don't let the year on the calendar make the decision for you. Follow these four basic rules before you devour that can of ravioli, soup, or vegetables that expired several years ago. 1. Inspect the can. If the can is damaged, rusted, or dented at the top or bottom lid it increases the risk of the food being contaminated. If the can is bulging or leaking fluid, throw it away immediately. With food items like olives, pickles, relishes or preserved fruit, observe the quality of the oil, syrup or brine. There may be a problem if the liquid appears muddy or opaque or if the liquid level has dropped significantly. 2. Open the can. If everything is so far, so good, go ahead and open the canned food. If while opening, it makes a hissing sound and/or liquid spurts out of the can, discard it. On visual inspection, the first thing to note is the color of the food. Minor color change over time is normal, but a big alteration in color or a lack of color signals a problem. If you see any mold, throw the contents in the trash. 3. Smell the food. If the above steps go well, give the food a good sniff. There is no better judge as to whether food is rotten than the sniffer test! It should smell fresh without an unusual or unpleasant odor of any kind. 4. Taste it. Lastly, you can give the food a taste. Keep in mind that long-term storage can affect the flavor of some foods, particularly if it was sweetened. With the money you save by not tossing out canned goods when they reach their expiration date, you can hopefully be better able to afford the rising gas and heating oil prices!

WARNING! The 2025 Caswell's is under new ownership and the prices of "the old days" are no longer…read more You can buy a box of generic mac and cheese at walmart for .58 cents or you can go to Caswells and pay over $1.25 for a box of mac and cheese that is crushed, covered in dust, and a month from expiring. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!! Shame on the New Owners for taking advantage of the elderly and the poor and everyone else that goes there. The Caswell's that everyone came to know and love through the years is DEAD and has ceased to extend its' legendary status in 2025. I has to add 1 star, btw, to post this. Pathetic.
