So, how long does spaghetti sauce last? Well, it depends on the type of sauce and how it's been stored. If you've got a jar of homemade sauce, it can last for up to 6 months in the fridge, but if you've got a jar of store-bought sauce, it can last for up to 2 years in the pantry.
But here's the thing, just because it's still technically good doesn't mean it's still delicious. Spaghetti sauce can lose its flavor and texture over time, so even if it's still safe to eat, it might not be worth eating. It's like that old joke, why did the sauce go to therapy? Because it was feeling a little flat!
And then there's the mystery of the mold. You know, when you open up the jar and there's this fuzzy green stuff growing on top. Yeah, that's not good. If you see any signs of mold or yeast, it's time to toss the sauce and start fresh. Don't be like me, trying to scrub off the mold with a spoon, thinking it's still good to go.
