Do vacuum sealed foods go bad?

Yes, eventually it’ll go bad. Freezer burn, taste… not sure about actual mold, but you don’t want to mess around too much with meat.

I think well-sealed meat in a cold freezer is probably good for a year, though I suspect there are people here that know better than me.

I’ve seen lots of vacuum-sealed things mold in the fridge. It depends on the seal, and the food, and how many preservatives, but almost everything goes bad eventually. You just don’t want to mess around with meat, because the food-poison can be much much worse.

@ben Hi Ben it’s good to see you.
Yes, vacuum sealed food does eventually go bad. I suggest you follow the package directions for the shelf life.

@cazzie GA. I love that chart.

I agree that is a cool chart. Yes food will go bad if left in the freezer to long.
