Ok I know the very name wheat meat can make a person cringe. That is what I thought too but hopefully you will be as surprised as I was by the reality. It was really good! I'm not saying all wheat meat is good, but this recipe definitely was. This is going to be a long post so please bear with me.

I've been wanting to try wheat meat for some time because the reality is, no matter how much meat you store, you will eventually run out.

How long have you had them? What’s the oldest you’ve opened and eaten? Inquiring minds want to know!

I've had them for years, the oldest one was opened last week, ground beef, best by date was June 2017, wife made sloppy joes, tasted good.

The best by dates, when purchased, are normally 5 years out, there are some that don't even have dates on them, so I mark them 5 years from date of purchase.

Same as canned hams, I buy them at dollar general, $3.25, 16 oz can, you won't find them cheaper anywhere, just bought 5 of them last week, best by date is January 2024.

Thank you!!
