TheDudeAbides Posted September 9, 2009 Hey everyone i have some old subs that i have kept in my draw in a zip lock bag. they are dried out but not to the extent of crisp biscuit dryness. they dont smell like feet and look alright. does anyone know if these would still be edible ? i dont expect to get a reply anytime soon as this forum is dead lately!!! im guessing it because the change of seasons.

JDanger Posted September 9, 2009 *cough-don't-incriminate-yourself-cough* The literature suggests there may be a risk of mould due to the not-quite-crisp dryness, and/or loss of potency due to long-term storage (I think 6 months is the recommended maximum under ideal conditions). But I suppose if they look alright and smell alright we can be somewhat justified in assuming they'll taste alright, too. Might wanna think about making a tea just in case, though. I hear adding vitamin C helps prevent oxidisation of what's left of the indoles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nabraxas Posted September 9, 2009 yeah they should be fine as long as they're not mouldy, maybe a little loss in potency. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
strangebrew Posted September 10, 2009 Depends how old. 6 months or more & I wouldn't expect much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

t st tantra Posted September 10, 2009 there is a theory that vit c will return to about fresh potency by breaking oxidative bonding which has merely rendered actives inactive..... t s t . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
