Help: No expiration date on store bought schug

What do I do?

I want to buy this fancy “homemade” schug, sold at my local kosher market, as a gift to someone.

Today I went in to purchase a few jars, but none had any expiration or sell by date. The label only had a Gmail email address, and the name of the local kashrut certification, without any phone number.

So I sent an email to the company’s email address, as listed on the package, but the email and name of the brand is linked to a tv show, so now I’m super confused. I received an automated email reply thanking me for my interest in the television show (ummm yea?).

The store manager said that he couldn’t call because it was after business hours, and then he must have left store before I could ask him for the number.

Is it normal to have undated homemade food at a kosher market? Not having any time labels feels like a red flag to me.

I’m going to go to another store B”H.

Just wondering if you’ve ever come across undated schig in the refrigerated section….

Also, they had another brand with an expiration date May 18, 2018. I thought schug lasts a long time? I don’t know if schug normally only lasts a month, or maybe the other brand was sitting on the shelf for a while?

Thank you 🙂
