The expiration date tells you how long the product should be fresh. Technically, stores are not supposed to sell products past the expiration (or "sell by" or "best by") date. I've been buying Kind bars for several years from local stores, as well as Amazon. I did once get a box (from Amazon) where the expiration date had gone by and the bars had a distinct rancid taste. But it has only happened once. Since then I buy locally and make sure to check the expiration date. I think maybe they are more susceptible to going rancid because the company uses such fresh ingredients and less preservatives.

Interesting that you asked. I never thought to look myself. Apparently Healthy Origins put a bar code sticker over the expiration date, so it isn't apparent. I couldn't see it until I managed to peel the bar code sticker off the bottle, with some difficulty (good glue and flimsy paper). Underneath the bar code sticker is the lot number and the expiration date: 3878 JAN/2016.

Look on the top of the box for the expiration date. Don't use beyond that date unless you show with control solution they are still in range.

PS. See the other answers. All the expiration dates do vary. Again, it depends on when they were made. I would say if they are still selling them, and IF they WERE expired, they would HAVE to state that. Just my opinion, not set in stone, though.

I would guess they are either the dates made or the expiration dates... talk to the company.

I'm honestly not sure if there is an expiration date on them or not. The packages are not as big as a pack of normal marshmallows from the stores, though. They are 2.7 oz packages, where as the average package of jet puffed brand looks like it's between 10-16oz. I had a couple of extra packages left over after making my project(sugar free moon pies for my dad) and I gave the extras to my mom for them to have as a treat.. I'm not sure if the bags got punctured or not, but she says within about a month, they got rock hard. I had them for a few weeks prior to use & they were as soft as can be, so I don't know... One thing, though... Once they get hard, i THINK you could still turn them into cream in the microwave. You just throw them into a microwave safe bowl & cook them for a brief time( watch them carefully because they may expand in the microwave quite a bit). Just stir them once they're warm & it's ready to use. It re-hardens quickly, but once it does, you just pop it back in the micro & stir it back up. You may be able to mix some butter in to keep it more creamy, but I haven't tried that yet. I have heard in reviews that you can use these marshmallows just like normal sugary versions from the store, so I'd like to try making s'mores & rice crispy treats with them next time I order some. I can not even tell you how surprised at how good they are. Anyways, this is turning into a novel, so I will end this. The short answer is that I'm not sure if there's an exp date, but it seems they do get hard within a couple of months(I was really surprised to hear this from my mom). I wonder if keeping them in an air tight container would extend the shelf life? You may want to contact the seller & see if they could tell you. I hope this was helpful in some way! Take care.

Hi, the ones I'm selling were just purchased and should have an expiration date of 2017. IM not sure about other sellers but if you buy from HillTopShop, you are buying brand new product

Mine had only a couple of weeks before expiration, and my use was a month away, so I froze them.Didn't work. They won't mix well.They were also much cheaper at Samsclub.

I don't remember but I do know that they were not expired. They are great! I wish they offered them in dark chocolate but milk chocolate was great.

I bought them in November or December...I have no ideal if they even had an expiration date. The problem wasn't that they were stale, after reading up on their chalky condition it indicated they were stored incorrectly (I can't remember the term but if you google chalky chocolate it will tell you). Amazon more than made me happy with the result they provided me. I highly recommend this candy.

You need to click through to the offers page (click where it says "___New"), and you will be able to see all of the listings that are available from various sellers. Some sellers will tell you what the expiration dates are, so you can pick the ones you want. If they don't list the dates, then you are risking getting very short-dates strips. I have even seen sellers offering expired strips...

That is the problem. It is no expiration date on the product. They should really have an expiration date.

I'm not sure. I threw it in the garbage. Do you think they were expired? Why do you ask?

They have an expiration date stamped on each bar. The one's I recently ordered (May 2015) had various expiration dates between January and March 2016.

We used our chocolates well before that length of time so didn't have a need to check expiration dates. We ordered these in August and were pleased that they arrived in an insulated bag to prevent melting in the summer heat. Sorry I can't be of more help than that.
