## Questions & Answers

**Q: what is the max shelf life of these?**
A: The boxes of BP-WR are marked with a best before date of 5 years from manufacture , however a separate label stuck onto the boxes gives a guaranteed shelf life of a minimum 15 years. Considering the quality of packaging etc I would feel confident that the 15 year guarantee is realistic.

**Q: How long is shelf life once the foil package has been opened?**
A: It should last a long time (I would estimate at least 3 months) so long as it's in a cool, dry place.   I've had the foil ripped occasionally and I just tapped it up and it was fine.   It's when they start to become soft I would throw them, but given the makeup of the ingredients it's unlikely to go off in a short period of time.

**Q: What are the dimensions of the single bars ,thanks**
A: 10cm long
4cm wide and 2cm thick .
The bars are in two halves

**Q: Are these vegan and gmo-free? and do they contain palm oil / palm fat?**
A: Yes, they do contain palm oil/fat.
