So my first tub of protein was only a small 400g (Just under 1lb) I wanted to test it first. Now that I'm almost out I'm ready to buy more, so I'm considering the 3kg tub (6.6lb - 125 serves) and it occurred to me, does protein get stale? This will be around a 4 month supply for me, will it last with out getting a stale yucky taste, or should I buy smaller?

    i stopped using them for a while, and started back up with a tub from 4 years ago, didn't notice any difference, it was muscle milk BTW

    The tub should have an expiration date. I wouldn't worry about going over that date as long as it smelled and tasted fine

    I too use protein powder that is 3-4 years old. It's fine and honestly tastes better than a brand new tub of nitro tech vanilla that someone gave me.
