Almonds, like all nuts, contain fats which can go rancid over time. Store almonds in the pantry in containers. If you do not use the almonds within two months put them in the refrigerator to keep fresh. Nuts have a bitter odor when they turn rancid. Always check the expiration date on the bag or can before eating.
