I swear to god, I started salivating as soon as I saw this. It sounds stupendous and I can’t wait to try it.

Agree. This thread got me to wander over to my (unrefrigerated) tahini jar and give it a sniff. No unpleasant odor whatsoever (hey! A [three word compound!](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/three-word-compound/944877/47)) and I’m sure it’s well over a year old, probably more like two since I really only use it for hummus to bring to gatherings that have been mostly suspended the last year+. FWIW, it has a use by date of 6/2022.
