2. They found 2,000 year old popcorn in Tutankhamun's tomb |
|
They popped it and it was still OK.

The actual popcorn would last indefinitely, but I am not sure about the shelf life of the oil or flavorings in it.

With unpopped microwave popcorn, I'd worry more about the oil and the additives than the corn.

7. Oil can go rancid, popcorn is probably good |
|
Popcorn will keep indefinitely if it doesn't get wet.
