Everyone knows what a “Best Before” date is- that little guide on your food or drinks that lets you know when its going to go bad. Generally, we expect things we buy to be good at least a week..maybe two; sometimes three or more depending on what it is, but the point is we trust it. What we need to remember however, and always keep in mind is what we’re buying, how long the date is or should be, and what that means about the product.

Firstly, it’s important to know though that “Best Before” and “Use By” dates are different, and mean different things.  “Best Before” implies that product will be in its best condition before that time period, but it may be okay for 24-48 hours after that; sometimes even longer.  A “Use By” date means that day is it, it’s spoiled beyond that and shouldn’t be eaten.

date

Some consumer juices have an unopened shelf life of 10 days, and are good for another 7-10 beyond the day that you open them, bringing it to a total of 20 days- now that’s a long time! Generally once fruit is juiced the oxidation process begins and the juice loses its freshness and begins to lose its nutritional value. The same juice brands also add “no preservatives” to their juices.

When it comes to “fresh” juices that offer a 20 day expiration period, as consumers we should pause and think of what “fresh” means after almost three weeks, and how “natural” that product must be if it maintains that long.  How can this fruit juice without any preservatives last almost three weeks, when the shelf life of a cut piece of orange or apple (I use cut here because just as with juicing, you expose the fruit to the oxidation process) is only 3-4 days?


If you are a juice lover, and want as much nutritional impact as you can get from each ounce of juice, truly the best way to ensure that is buying a juicer of your own. Processors, blenders and even magic bullets act as great tools to get high quality fruit juice of your own, and drinking it right after juicing ensures all the nutrients will still be there.  The best part is you can get them from most kitchen good stores.

Inflated expiration dates with products labelled as “fresh” and “natural” should alert you that something may not be as it seems. Next time you’re in the aisle checking the date on your next carton of juice, pause and think about where its come from, how long it must take to get to the shelf, and how long that product still says it’s good for. Once more than a week, from juicing till consumption has passed, that “fresh” label begins to lose its clout.  That’s why all Chasers Juice products have a shelf life of a week or less.  It’s also why we start juicing early every morning, to make all our juices fresh to order for delivery to you the same day.

How Long Does Oranges Last?

How Long Do Oranges Last?

The shelf life of oranges, like most other fresh fruit or fresh vegetables is variable because most have no sell by date, use by date, or best before date. Since there is no printed date and it's difficult to tell how long the fruit has been on the grocery shelf prior to purchase, the only date you can go by is the purchased date or date picked (if you are lucky enough to pick your own fresh fruit). There are two main varieties of oranges; Navel which are best for eating, and Valencia which are best for juice. Because of their relatively low cost, long Shelf Life, easy portability and extremely high concentration of antioxidents, vitamin C and fiber oranges are one of the most popular fruits around. So, how long do oranges last? When properly stored, some of the more popular expiration dates of oranges can be found below.

Oranges Expiration Date

Fresh/Cut ; On Counter;(Inside Refrigerator)
Fresh Oranges; last for 2-3 Weeks;(1-2 Months)
Cut Oranges; last for Same Day; (1-2 Days)

Of course, all foods last for a shorter period of time if they are not stored properly. Sometimes when they are packaged in a large bag or box it is labeled with the date the oranges were packed into the container. This date can be used to calculate the eat by date.

How to tell if Oranges are bad, rotten or spoiled?

Practicing proper hygiene and food safety techniques will help prevent foodborne illness.

Although not a perfect test, your senses are usually the most reliable instruments to tell if your oranges have gone bad beyond the shelf life. Some common traits of bad oranges are a soft texture and some discoloration. The soft spot is moist and develops a mold, usually white in color at first. Bad oranges, just like bad orange juice and other fruit juices, will have a distinct sour smell and taste.

There are, of course, certain health risks associated with spoiled foods so always remember to practice food safety and enjoy your foods before their shelf life has expired!

How to store Oranges to extend their shelf life?

You can help oranges stay fresh longer by storing them in your refrigerator drawer. Once oranges are prepared, they should be stored in a tightly closed container to keep out moisture and other contaminants.

Some benefits of proper food storage include eating healthier, cutting food costs and helping the environment by avoiding waste.

Interesting facts about Oranges:

Most oranges in North America come from Florida and California
Navel oranges are named so because they have a belly button opposite the stem. The bigger the navel, the sweeter the orange.
Valencia oranges turn orange when ripe, but then can turn green again as they re-absorb chlorophyll when remaining on the tree during warm weather (but they're still ripe).

How to use extra before your Oranges go bad?

Make orange juice! Cut and squeeze the oranges into a glass or container, then refrigerate and drink within a day.
Peel the oranges and put into a Vitamix with some bananas, canned pineapple, fruit juice and ice for a great smoothie.
Peel and separate the oranges and toss them into a container of chocolate yogurt.

How Long Does Bananas Last?

How Long Do Bananas Last?

How long do bananas last? The shelf life of bananas is difficult to determine because there is no sell by date, use by date or best before date attached anywhere to bananas. For eat by date purposes we must use the date the bananas were purchased. Bananas are often referred to as "nature's perfect food" since they contain many essential vitamins and minerals, like potassium, and come neatly wrapped in their own protective container. For more on the health benefits of bananas, check banana health benefits.

Bananas can range from a bright green color to the perfect yellow to already developing a brown spotted skin in the grocery store and people have different preferences as to which stage is the perfectly ripe one.


So, how long do bananas last? When properly stored, the shelf life of bananas beyond the purchase date is approximately...

Bananas Expiration Date

Fresh Bananas left and last for ; 
On Counter,2-7 Days;
Inside Refrigerator, 2- 9 Days; 
Inside Freezer 2-3 months.


How to tell if Bananas are bad, rotten or spoiled?

Practicing proper hygiene and food safety techniques will help prevent food borne illness.

Fresh bananas will first get brown spots and then get soft and turn completely brown and leak liquid when they have gone bad. If left out long enough they will eventually turn black and grow mold. Bananas are usually shipped green since they develop better color, texture, aroma and sweet taste after being harvested. Placing bananas near other fruit will cause the other fruits to also ripen faster.

Another problem you may experience with having fresh fruit on the counter is the sudden presence of fruit flies. Fruit Flies are tiny little flies that just hover around your fresh fruit basket. So, how do you get rid of fruit flies? To get rid of fruit flies, place a bowl of water with a teaspoon of vinegar in it next to the fruit basket at night. In the morning, all the fruit flies will have taken their final swim in the bowl.

There are, of course, certain health risks associated with spoiled foods so always remember to practice food safety and enjoy your foods before their shelf life has expired!

How to store Bananas to extend their shelf life?

Bananas ripen at room temperature, so to stunt the ripening process bananas can be placed in the refrigerator. To extend the shelf life of bananas at room temperature, place plastic wrap tightly around the stem of the bunch. Bananas can also be frozen, but the texture will change.
