Problems can also arise if you wear a prescription that is too strong, as it will strain the eyes and cause headaches and fatigue. For example, if your reading glasses are too strong you will find that youâre holding things too close to your face.
Pasta will store longer than flour if kept dry. Hermetically sealed in the absence of oxygen, plan on a storage life of 8 - 10 years at a stable temperature of 70 degrees F. Pasta should keep proportionately longer if stored at cooler temperatures.
As long as it is stored in a cool, dry place, dried pasta can last years after its expiration date. Fresh pasta, on the other hand, does contain water, and spoils more easily, but it can still be good past its date as well (about two to three weeks, usually, as long as it doesn't have a spoiled odor to it).
