It can go stale and lose flavor , especially if opened and the vacuum seal broken, but it won't make you sick.

I hate to rein on the answer above but yes it can make you sick or even kill you. That is why there is an expiration period on the newer cans.

Sorry but yes it can, especially if stored in very warm area's where temps can get to 100F.
