In most cases no. Canned food usually has a shelf life of 2 years and it's best to dispose of such foodstuffs. Also beware of any damaged cans or ones that have a bulge in them. These are certain signs of contamination and should be disposed of quickly and without question.
When manufacturers produce a product they put an expiration date on it. This does not mean the food is not good after that date because there is a large safety factor added to the expiry date so the food is still good. The message on the container usually says something like "Best if used before 2/2/2009". Although the food is still good, the longer it stays on the shelf the more likely the flavor and taste will diminish. As the post above indicates, if there is visible damage to the can such as bulging it is probably contaminated with a gas generating microorganism and should be discarded without opening.
It depends on how past the best-before date they are. Canned goods will have a best-before date, which states that the food is best before that date, and food quality may deteriorate afterwards, but it won't necessarily be dangerous (unlike use-by dates which state that a product must be used by that date otherwise it becomes unsafe). Use your discretion, if it's a few weeks, it'll probably be fine. If it's a few years it's probably best to chuck it out and buy a new can.
Odds are that the food will still be safe to eat but it's not worth taking the chance.
It is best to avoid expired meats. But if the tuna were stored in a cool dry place, it should still be good up to a year after its expiration date.
no it is not all it will make you do is feel really queezy and sick so you'll have to miss out on everything (even school for those who hate it) and it'll be your most awful moment.
No, it is not healthy for your health, if you eat too much expired food, your liver will "break"
Depends upon food,,,,
Canned tuna fish will still be good to eat if the can has not been opened. Because it is canned, it is protected from any bacteria. A good way to tell if a canned food is still okay to eat is to hear the sound of rushing air entering the can when it is first punctured. This sound means that the seal is intact and the food is safe to eat.
Yes if the can is unopened. No if it is opened. Place the tuna in an airtight container to refrigerate, never keep it in an opened can.
The number of filets is irrelevant. Tuna when packed in a can is "canned tuna".
Albacore is a specific type of tuna that is regulated by the USDA. Canned tuna unspecified can be any type of tuna.
Yes canned tuna fish does have a expiry date on it.
yes it is acceptable for Muslims to eat canned tuna
Canned tuna requires draining and flaking.
No.More informationActually, most dates on canned goods are 'best by' dates, not actual expirations. Companies tend to be conservative on the dating of their products so that people will utilize the food while it is in prime condition. The product would not be guaranteed after that date. And so much depends upon the storage conditions.Even unopened canned food can deteriorate in quality and nutrition.So it will depend upon how far past the expiration date, storage conditions and the condition of the can. Using it would be up to you.

So, you wonder if the frozen canned tuna is still good after being frozen for two days.If the can was not opened and the contents were not expired before you froze it, the fish is still good.If the can was not opened but the contents are expired it probably won't taste as good as non-expired.If the can burst open while freezing, the contents are probably good but may have picked up flavors from other food in the freezer.Bottom line: freezing will not harm the fish.
If you look in the can it will tell you what is in it, however basically "fish".
Obviously canned tuna can be stored in hot weather because it is canned. If the canned tuna has been opened it needs to be stored out of the temperature danger zone. This zone is between 145 degrees and 45 degrees.
