Nice chart!

 

I am addicted to stilltasty.com.  You can enter just about any foods (fresh, canned, frozen etc) and it will tell you how long it can stay in frig, freezer etc.  Saved me from throwing things out unnecessarily Smiley Happy

Strange.  I have a 5 foot stand up freezer.  As long as I package foods that can be frozen in air tight bags, they can stay in the freezer for up to 2 years.

 

FWIW...

I've been using the Food Saver bags for over 20 yrs.  Prior to that, I used freezer paper.

I've read that honey is the one food that never expires.  It will crystalize but it's still edible.

Sugar, salt and rice (white) are the same, if stored properly.
