Default How long do gulp's last

if not opened? I have a tub of gulps that are about 2 years old but the seal on the tub has not been opened. Do you think they are still good?

Thanks
Charlie

That test is unreliable; I've had some that tasted fine but were dried out so I use those in gumbo. I have had some fresh bought ones that were a little fishy so I use those for catfish bait. Jus' sayin'

The coffee flavored ones work well in frozen lattes.

neighbors dog loves them, it comes and gobbles them up and then goes into their house and pukes. HEHE so much for leash law. That dog also took a piece of rotten deer trimmings from a process I was undertaking, into their house and dropped on bed spread! Guess that was not lesson enough!!!!!

Get you a loc n loc or other sealable bowl. You can put all your gulp in the same container .They don't bleed colors. i have had gulps in the same bowl for 2 - 3 years . when i run out of a color i just buy a couple packs and put them in the bowl.You can buy the gulp juice in a bottle and add to the bowl to keep the liquid over all the lures.

Seems like the old ones lasted longer than the new "biodegradable" ones.
