About to make my pumpkin pies and I see that my evaporated milk is older than I thought. Is it still good if it's 2 yrs. old?

If the cans look normal and aren't bulging or leaking I would use it myself.

Thistle, I'm not as brave as you, so I sent my son to the store. I sure don't want to get anyone sick on Thanksgiving day.

Mary can send it to you for your culinary museum if you'd like NYboy.
I had chicken stock cubes from 2005, I still used them until recently tyen I added them to the hog feed and bought a new bottle.
Tons of things I keep using until they get a weird smell or just give me a feeling like I shouldn't risk it, then the hogs are extra happy to see me, lol.

You know you have a problem , when a friend who collects antique bottles asks to go though your pantry.

It really depends on WHAT it is. And WHAT the expiration date says.
MIL gave me 2 boxes of Kraft Macaroni & cheese from her pantry. Recently.
So, about one month later...I go to use one. I dumped the sauce powder in the melted butter...to mix it up.
It was brown. And smelled,.....WEIRD
I refused to even feed it to the chickens. So I scraped it all into the trash, and checked the box. NO expiration date. NO..."Use by ..." date. Wow. That ch*t must have been OLD
I saved the uncooked noodles (I don't use those kind of mac noodles anyways), cooked them up the next day for the chickens. THOSE...smelled funny and off too. 
she must have had those for years....!!!!!
