How long do chips last? I'm thinking of ordering a ton of them into reserve in case they stop making the flavors

@matrix depends if there's oxygen in the bag or not. If there is, probably a few weeks. If it's just nitrogen in the bag probably half a year.

@coldacid
I mean unopened. I tested it if opened and yeah it's about a week if you wrap them properly

@matrix yeah I meant unopened.

Here, the bags even have an expiry/BB date printed on them

@coldacid
Expiry dates are conservative estimates on how long the food is going to be safe for consumption. Foods that are sealed generally last well past the expiry date.
I'm interested if anyone has experience how long they retain flavor and crisp

@matrix @coldacid Literally all depends on whether the packaging stays intact. Most crisp packets in the UK are filled with nitrogen so the crisps don't go stale. If the seal breaks, it's fucked. You can usually tell by whether the packet feels deflated or not.

Yeah, I'm assuming the bag stays intact just laying in a box with the other bags. I'm asking to figure out if it makes sense to buy like 60 and slowly eat them over the span of a year+.

@matrix @VD15 @coldacid I think it does, but I wouldn't keep them for more than a year
