    Look, smell, taste.

    Does it look ok? If yes, smell it. If it smells ok, taste a little. If it tastes ok, eat it! It probaby will be fine, sugar is a preservative and caramel is mostly sugar.

    How to use it up: pick up a spoon. Use spoon to transfer some caramel from tin to mouth. Repeat as desired or until tin is empty. If prefered, spoon can transfer caramel onto chopped bananas and mix them together before transfering the mixture to your mouth....

    Haha that sounds like a plan-would heating it up make a difference?
