Well, everything goes bad eventually, but properly stored, many food are good for years. "Expiration" dates usually aren't actually expiration dates. They don't mean the food can't be eaten after that date. They may mean the stuff may not be at it's peak or that the company won't guarantee quality after that date, but the food is still good. I know I've heard that canned foods can be good for 30 or 40 years. Vacuum sealed dehydrated stuff is probably good indefinitely.
