Recently my wife decided to make black bean chili soup with rice.\u00a0 It was very good, but I thought it could use something more since it was a bit watery. \u00a0So, I dug into our pantry and found a container with some ExPress\u00ae Textured Soy Protein (TSP) chunks that I had taken from our R&D department a while back and decided to throw some in to add protein and soak up some of the extra juice.\u00a0 My wife noticed that it had been in the pantry for several months, so she asked me if the TSP was still good. I thought, this was a very good question that I\u2019m sure many of our customers also want to know the answer to \u2013 What is the typical shelf life of ExPress\u00ae TSP?<\/p>\n
The actual answer is that it depends on how it is stored.\u00a0 This TSP was stored in an air tight container in a normal kitchen pantry, always between 62-72 degrees F (16-22 C).\u00a0 I smelled it, took of bite of the dry TSP determined there was nothing wrong with it.<\/p>\n
