Yes, but it takes a good bit of time. The acid from the tomatoes and the vinegar help preserve it for some time. Even if it starts to brown a little, it's still good - it's just the tomatoes oxidizing a little bit.

Shelf Life Of Ketchup
2016-12-29 21:16:08 · answer #3 · answered by ? 4 · 0⤊ 0⤋
Yes. Almost all foods expire or turn bad. Foods with a higher acidity content (like ketchup) have a longer shelf life than some others.
The one food that doesn't taint? Honey. Although it may crystallize, it is virtually good forever.

They don't have expiration dates because they're intended to be used right away. They would expire the same time as regular ketchup and mustard.

Some actually have a expiration date on them. I know not all do though. If its sealed and in your cabinet It should be fine up to a year. In the fridge opened I'd say a few months.

I don't think so, but if it looks or smells off - toss it. Because it has a lot of vinegar it probably has a shelf life for a long time if unopened. Once opened it is usually advised that you keep it in the fridge. Still, if anything tastes off, smells off, or looks off you should never take a chance on it.
