Meat In A Can?
Absolutely! Unopened, it can be kept up to the expiration date marked on the can.
An unopened can of canned crab has a pantry shelf life of 3 to 5 years. An opened can be refrigerated for 2 to 3 days.
Canned meat has the same ingredients today as it did in the 1800's, water, salt and pepper.
yes in japan No, I can't buy canned whale meat in Japan,I have not seen it. Where did you see canned whale meat in japan, I will go to confirm whether it is really true.
If you are talking about shelf stable canned crab meat, the date on the can is likely the 'best by' date and not an expiration. If the can is unopened, has been stored properly and is not swollen or damaged, it is likely safe to eat, but the palatability of the crab meat will deteriorate over time. The processor will not guarantee the product beyond the recommended 'use by' date.

He opposes Australian canned meat, as he shows the family looking horrified by it.
Canned beef is good for a minimum of 5 years. However if it is stored in a cool, dry place you can stretch it for a few more years.

There is no magic date. It will depend on the quality of the food to begin with, the quality and type of container and the subsequent handling and storage thereof. Even canned, food will degrade and change color, texture and flavor. I have used some items that were a year past the coded date. They were edible, but I could tell the difference when compared to newer product. Many canned foods are coded with 2 and even 3 year shelf lives. But for best quality and nutrition, plan to use canned goods within a year. If you are trying to maintain a cache of canned foods, use product throughout the year and replace it with fresh stock. Use the FIFO method - First In First Out. Always use the oldest items first.
