Shelf Life
A jar of jam
A bag of rice
A can of corn
A box of pasta
A loaf of bread
A carton of eggs
A bottle of juice
A package of bacon
"8 items of food", said I
"All good for my life".
Eat them now
Eat them later
Eat them after freezing
Eat them fresh from the Friz
"May I help you", said the seller.
"Two things", said the buyer.
"I want to know the ingredients".
"I want to know the shelf life".
"I need to know both the ingredients
and the shelf life, because I value my life".
