While you’re prepping that grill for your first cookout of the season – check the condiments too...

If you’ve had that mustard since last summer’s cookout, that’s okay...  

Mustard keeps for about a year in the fridge. The Food Safety and Inspection Service says you’ll need to check some dates on your other condiments though. Here are the general life spans of our favorite toppers, sauces and sides:

• Ketchup, cocktail or chili sauce: 6 months

• Chutney: 1 to 2 months

• Horseradish: 3 to 4 months;

• Pickles and olives: 2 weeks

• Mayonnaise and salad dressing: Up to 2 months

• Barbecue sauce: 4 months

• Worchestershire sauce: 12 months

• Jams and jellies: 6 months
