canned salmon last 3 years once gone past its "best before date", when they are unopened and stored in a cool place.

You dont have to throw it away, just because its date has passed.. They are SAFE to eat.

Don’t confuse “best before” with “expired”

Reading best before dates as expiry dates probably contributes to food waste and every year a staggering amount of the world’s food is wasted after it has been harvested. That’s wasted fruit and vegetables, fish and seafood, cereals, dairy products and meat.

Best before dates have to do with food quality — freshness, texture, flavour and nutritional value — not safety. They are not expiry dates.

Not confusing “best before” with “expired” will lead to these three things:
-You’ll waste less food.
-You’ll save money.
-You’ll avoid sending food waste to the landfill, which contributes to increasing methane emissions
