Butter
Past Food Expiration Date: 2-3 months unopened, 1-2 months opened
Expired butter? Not necessarily. Butter fortified with oil will, in general, last twice as long past the expiration date as pure butter (which you can keep on the counter, by the way). Margarine has more additives than butter and thus lasts longer. Opened margarine lasts roughly 2-3 months, and unopened from 4-5 months.
