psa i didn't know was necessary: fish sauce lasts at least a year after opening
why are we like this in america
Or, um, longer. If you are the kind of person willing to experiment/cannot remember when you bought things. (I basically keep it until it turns super dark.)
haha i've definitely kept a bottle longer, though i usually get through a bottle inside of a year
