About 2.5 years ago I bought about ten cases of Myoplex. (The packets of powder variety, not the ready-to-drink kind.) Anyway I stored them in our cellar freezer, we ended up moving and ultimately I kinda forgot about them until now. I called the number on the packet and asked the rep if they expire. After waiting on hold, he came back and obviously reading from something, he told me they expire after two years. He could not answer if they expire due to freshness/safety concerns, or they expire because the law says they must expire after a set amount of time and they're actually ok to eat.
My questions are;
1) Does sealed packet protein powder Myoplex *really* expire and become unsafe to eat?
2) Are food supplement companies required by law to put an expiration date on all products even though perhaps they don't ever expire? (i.e. pasta sauce in a glass container expires, but it's ok to eat indefinitely.)
I opened a packet and it looks and smells fine. I'm asking for help here because I really don't want to throw this stuff out if I don't need to, and I don't want to be a guinea pig and test one only to get sick. :frown:
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
