There are no hard and fast rules about the length of time turkey bacon will keep. That will depend upon several factors including

1. the handling of the bacon from production through distribution to the store

2. the type of packaging used

3. the actual conditions of storage - especially temperature and temperature fluctuations

Most of the information we have available are just guidelines. So use those and a bit of good sense.

If the package is unopened and your refrigeration is 40°F or less (check with a thermometer), use the manufacturer's date on the package.

If it is opened, plan to use it within one week.

Meats are kept better in the freezer. Meats can be kept in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days if raw and 1 to 2 days longer if cooked. Always place cooked meats in an airtight container.

Bacon however is pre-cooked in a smoker, so technically it should keep much longer. It is also vacuum-packed, so it won't oxygenate and lose flavor either. Unopened bacon should last almost a month in its original packaging, if not longer.

Check the expiration date on the package you bought, and if you've opened it already, don't count on it lasting for longer than about 4 days.

This food will keep for about 4 days in the refrigerator. Place the food in an air tight container for the best results. This food can easily be transferred to the freezer for longer storage time.

Raw meats do not last long in the refrigerator. Meats that are not going to be eaten in a few days should be frozen and not stored in the refrigerator.Place raw meats in freezer bags or paper or an airtight container.Then freeze them for up to 2 years.

Opened bacon should be refrigerated, tightly wrapped in foil or plastic wrap. Unopened bacon will keep for a week after the "use by" date. Bacon should never be left out over two hours at room temperature. Cooked bacon will be good refrigerated for 3 to 4 days.

You can tell bacon is bad if:

  • it has an off smell
  • it has a very noticeable change in appearance
  • if it has a slimy texture
  • if it has an off taste once it is cooked
