Salt life span

[lilchris_357]

As the title say, what's the life span of salt? Does it expire once tge container is opened?

As long as the salt is kept dry, I would think that it would last for years on end.

It will last a long time, as long as it doesnt contain organic stuff. For example one salt i have has amquel added to it. Some new salts contain probiotics iirc. But if its just salt, and theres no foods for bacteria in it, salt should last forever

Yeah its just a bucket of IO. It was at the Goodwill, 3\4 of a 5 g bucket left. Totally dry. $4.99.

I dont think itll be a problem, just keep it dry. You could even put some dehydrator in it like silica beads they put in shoes. Sweet deal!
