If SN ever gets banned (big if), what then?

[MiseryLovesMyCompany]

But my understanding from reliable sources is that SN is usable and does what is wanted for several years past the expiration date on the label if it is not opened and is stored well, so you are under no pressure to take it before you are ready, Keep it sealed in the original container and stash it in a dry place. That would give you considerably more than the three years you mentioned.

The only enemy of SN is humidity, which turns it into nitrate, although it is made from that.

Got it. Sodium nitrate.

Sodium NITRITE. Not nitrate.
