AIBU to eat opened burger gherkins a year later if they seem fine?

[BellesAndGraces]

AIBU to eat a jar of Mrs Elswood burger gherkins a year after opening? Smells alright, tastes alright (still crunchy), no signs of mould. I’ve added a photo - the spots are seeds floating on the surface.

Photo now attached

Well vinegar is a preservative 🤷🏻‍♀️

They’ll be fine (if you like gerkins!)

It wouldn’t occur to me not to

They'll be absolutely fine

Totally fine

That’s what pickling is for: to preserve.
If they smell ok and look ok they’ll be good.

Yep. The clue is in 'preserved foods'

They will be fine.

As an aside, we go through a jar of Mrs Elswood gherkins a week!

They’re pickled, you could probably eat those in 5 years time and be fine 🤣

No because gherkins are the devils verrucas... just walk around any McDonald's, all the right thinking people throw those evil things on the floor...get thee behind me Satan

They'll be better than ever, like wine improves.Nicely matured.
