Practical guidance

How to choose and store Canned Chickpeas

How to choose

Choose cans in good condition. Avoid bulging, leaking, rusted, or deeply dented cans.

Storage

Store unopened in a cool, dry place below 85°F. High-acid foods (like tomatoes, citrus, pineapple) keep 12–18 months; low-acid foods (like beans, most vegetables, fish) keep 2–5 years. Once opened, refrigerate the unused portion; for best quality move it to a covered container. Follow any date on the label.
