"if product has long shelf life and does not require refrigeration - it is probably unhealthy"
There are a lot of exceptions though: dried lentils and pulses, pasta, ground spices (and to a less extent whole spices). Tinned fruit, vegetables, beans and pulses are often fine too. Some vegetables, like onions and potatoes, can be stored for many weeks in a cool environment (not in the refrigerator).
Also, UHT milk has a long shelf life and is not unhealthy, although it tastes awful.

UHT milk doesn't taste much different at all, maybe the slightest caramel flavor. I swapped to it when I got tired of running out of milk at random, now I can just stock the pantry and always grab a spare when I kick the one in the fridge.
- Spooky23 7y agoYou’re probably in an area where the dairies have consolidated and milk tastes like crap. UHT milk is not at all tasty compared to normal milk and has a different consistency. I like it as an alternative beverage or coffee creamer, especially for camping.
- realusername 7y agoUHT milk is very different taste-wise, that's the number one reason of why it's not used that much.
