flanker Jun 2024 12:38am, 18 Jun 2024 21,258 posts	0 flanker I'm still working though a box of black and white ones. We've got drawers full of inherited out of date energy bars, gels, etc, many of which are BB 2016 and earlier. Not caused any problems yet.
Rosehip Jun 2024 10:37am, 18 Jun 2024 32,287 posts	0 Rosehip However, chia charge bars two years out of date taste it and Gu gels separate and crystallise when more than 18months out of date 🤮
Velociraptor Jun 2024 10:46am, 18 Jun 2024 69,450 posts	0 Velociraptor I have some ancient Gu gels Iand Torq and Accel gels) that are still fine. But oblongs definitely don't age quite as well.

Ness Jun 2024 10:55am, 18 Jun 2024 42,139 posts	0 Ness Out of date High5 gels are still fine in my experience. Other sports drinks etc don't last long enough in the Ness household so don't know.
EvilPixie Jun 2024 10:57am, 18 Jun 2024 55,242 posts	0 EvilPixie we must meet up so you can have more High 5 Ness!! I have a load for you - I will get me some next month
Ness Jun 2024 11:04am, 18 Jun 2024 42,140 posts	0 Ness Excellent! They're my favourite. I like them more than the SiS gels that I used to buy and I have none left at the moment. Mr Ness said he was going to order some more for my refillable pouch but I keep forgetting to remind him.
