18 Months: Gravy, Pickles, cocktail Sauce, Wine Vinegar, Apple Cider Vinegar, Jack Daniel's Grilling Sauce.

24 Months: Mustard, Chili Sauce, Relish, Malt Vinegar.

30 Months: 57 Sauce, Worcestershire Sauce, Beans, Tarragon Vinegar.

42 Months: Distilled White Vinegar, Salad Vinegar.

Hope that helps some!

It would make sense for the food canners to grossly underestimate the shelf life of their products. They probably err on the side of caution to prevent lawsuits. There has been a recorded case of canned meat being OK after a century. It was on a link attached to a thread in this forum.
