About a month ago, my MIL moved in with us. The past week, we've been moving all her stuff into my house. I'm now starting to unpack and sort through all her kitchen stuff, including her dry goods.
Some of this stuff is ancient! I'm pitching the obviously out-of-date, unusable/inedible stuff, but some things are interesting. I just found a box of Sun Giant Pitted Dates. It's got the original plastic wrapper over the box, with a price tag from some store I don't recognize, with a price of $1.19. Here's the kicker. On the back, there is a disclaimer that these dates were "Grown in Iran". I wasn't aware that Iran was exporting anything to us these days? There's no date on the package, so I don't know if I should keep it or not. Any ideas on how old it might be?
