Also just to let you guys know because it's been discussed in the thread.
I spoke to a customer service rep at the company as there is an expiration date on my package but I can not make out the numbers. The rep told me Shea butter should be used within 6 months of purchase.
(It is grade A)
Now I have never believed Shea butter to never expire (sorry guys) but I don't believe it to expire within 6 months either. LOL
Editing to add the customer service number from my invoice:
1-800-925-4232
Maybe someone else can call and see if they get the same answer. I think it was the owner who answered the phone. She has a very rich thick accent, so I don't know if she understood my question. I also asked her could I store in the fridge if I can't use it within 6 months and she told me the temperature in which you keep the butter doesn't matter....just use within 6 months. LOL She confused the heck out of me.
