The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.

Take a culinary voyage to the Mediterranean with farro, a hearty grain that was a mainstay of the daily diet in ancient Rome. Farro has a nutty flavor and chewy texture perfect for stews, salads and more.
Some say farro is the original ancestor of all other wheat species—"the mother of all wheat." In ancient Rome, farro was a staple food that provided the main source of nourishment for the Roman legions, and it was even used as a form of currency. Today this Old World heirloom grain is still highly regarded in Italy, where it has been grown for generations by Tuscan farmers and is featured in many traditional dishes. Use farro in stews, casseroles and salads.
Direct Method: Rinse 1 cup farro. Place in a pot and add 3 cups water or stock (should cover the grains). Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 30 minutes. Drain off any excess liquid.
Pre-Soak Method: Cover 1 cup farro with water and soak in the refrigerator overnight, then drain. Place in a pot and add 3 cups water or stock (enough to cover the grains). Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes. Drain excess liquid.
Makes 4 servings (about 2 cups).
Keeps best refrigerated or frozen
Organic farro (wheat)
Manufactured in a facility that uses tree nuts, soy, wheat and milk.

Good quality grains. I just tossed one full cup to 3 cups of water (enough of only one person) into my rice cooker and then added some pork cubes and vegetables to accompany it like I would with a rice dish and it tasted great. Pepper and salt after the rice is cooked for serving. It is much fuller than rice but is more compact and does not fluff up as much on volume. The slight soft half crunchy taste is appetising. Will definitely order more once both my packets are consumed. Remember this is not rice. One cup of rice usually serves 2 person. One cup Farro is only enough for one unless you feast like a mouse. So remember the 2x ratio reference to preparing rice when you use Farro.

Great price (cheaper than amazon), very fast delivery! I LOVE the chewy texture of farro and how filling it is! Look up Mediterranean Farro salad by Giada, it's fantastic! The only negative is the cook time, but as long as I plan ahead I can have the farro cooking while preparing the rest of the meal. Will definitely keep ordering.

This was my first experience with using the healthy farro grain, and I was pleased with the results. I was happy to see that it cooked more quickly than brown rice. I used it in vegetable soup, and found that I could omit eating less healthy crackers with my soup, and still get a nice robust flavor.

I recommend Bob's Red Mill products generally, and this is a god grain. I cook it in a steamer/rice cooker, and it comes out well.
