There are a few notable exceptions, myself being one of them, I sure don’t feel new again. But a rummage in the bottomless freezer drawers revealed a long lost pack of fruit mince pies, which had sat with time suspended for the last year in the bottom of the drawer. I have thawed them and eaten 2 so far.. and no ill effects, so I guess the rest will be safe to knock over in the ensuing weeks.. then I can go out and over buy more and save them for the following year.
This is not something I set out to do, I just buy more than I can handle on a regular basis, and tuck the residuals away, then forget about them.I may do a comparison, one of the oldies vs one of the this years.
