Can you get sick from expired sesame oil?

While consuming small amounts of expired sesame oil is unlikely to cause immediate harm, it is not advisable to consume expired oils due to several potential risks.

- Rancidity and Off-Flavors: Expired sesame oil undergoes degradation and becomes rancid over time, producing an unpleasant taste and odor. Rancid oils can also have a negative impact on the flavor and quality of other ingredients in your dish.

- Nutritional Value Loss: The nutritional value of sesame oil, including essential fatty acids and antioxidants, can decline over time.

- Potential Toxins: In extreme cases, expired sesame oil might contain microbial growth or toxic byproducts resulting from oxidation, depending on storage conditions and the extent of expiration.
