How long can a mayonnaise based dip last in the refrigerator?

Answer 1

Until you take it out!!!

there is a date on the package..check it. The standard rule of thumb is one week after it's opened.

* Obviously this only applies to commercial products, if the OP was inquiring about homemade dips, this is not a viable answer. Commercially prepared products will have a best before date on them, and may have addiitonal information on the package to indicate how long it stays fresh after the seal has been broken. For dips prepared at home, I'm certain the length of time will depend on both the nature of and freshness of the ingredients.

Answer 2

Well , Depending on what dip your talking about, dips in general can last up too a year or more . For example if you have an onion dip or an garlic dip it can last a while and also most store bought products do have best before or expiry dates . Best before means that after that date its still good but not as fresh and expiry date means that you probably should consider going to buy a fresh product .

*Remember the difference between expiry and Best before *

Dip can stay in the fridge for about 5-6 months. You can freeze it for about 3 years..
