In general, the longer it lasts, the less it is really food (save for honey and a handful of other real food items).

Food, at least on the industrial level (which is what most people shove into their face) stops being food the more extensively it is processed for the purpose of long term stability.

Food that is fit for human consumption is inherently unstable, which it why it is valuable as food.

IOW, what crimethink said.

I would have second thoughts but would trust your mom more than silver. PM me and send me some old cherries I can dump in vodka for next season.
