  • How old is too old?

    Rummaging at the bottom of the freezer just now and found some home smoked gouda and home smoked cheddar from 2012/2013. Are these still safe to eat or should I chuck them? They look like they were packaged yesterday.

            Your good, if you have a good vac seal on them,,, I have vac sealed cheese in my fridge from 13,,,, still good,,, This is how they do aged cheese,,

            Just being frozen it may crumble some on you when you are using it,, if it does it will make great topping on a casserole or salad.

              I love 5 or 10 year aged gouda... though that's not exactly the same kind of aging. Eat it up!
