What is the shelf life for wheatgerm?

Answer 1

If it's not frozen or refrigerated, probably a few months as the oils in Wheat Germ can go rancid. You will know if you smell it. It will get a rancid smell that is distinctive. If it still smells fresh and wheaty, it's likely fine.

Answer 2

If the sunflower seeds are kept in their original, sealed factory package, they can go a year. Note that the seed and nut packers have taken a lesson from the makers of snack foods like potato chips and are putting up their products in packages from which the air has been flushed with nitrogen gas. This nitrogen - the packers usually use the term "low oxygen" - packing extends shelf life by a general factor of from 2 to 4. Freezing the hulled seeds in original packing makes storage okay for even longer periods. This data applies to roasted seeds. Raw seeds may not do so well.
