Now, you might be thinking, "What about unopened cans of corn?" Great question, friend! Unopened cans can last for years when stored in a cool, dry place - we're talking up to 10 years or more! Talk about a long shelf life!
But, let's get back to the fridge. Once you've opened that can of corn, it's essential to store it properly to prevent spoilage. Transfer the corn to an airtight container, and make sure it's covered and refrigerated at a temperature of 40°F (4°C) or below. Easy peasy!
Now, you might be wondering, "What happens if I leave it in the fridge for too long?" Well, my friend, bacteria can start to grow, and that's when things can get nasty. So, be sure to check on that corn regularly and give it a sniff - if it smells off or looks slimy, it's time to say goodbye!
