How long will black pudding last

How long will black pudding last?
The answer will of course vary from black pudding to black pudding.
From production (factory) the black pudding can last from 10 days to 6 months, depending on the casing.
The natural casing will only give approximately 7-10 days.
Most plastic casings will give 6 weeks from production, however advances are being made continuously, and now there is a new casing that will ensure the product lasts for 6 months.
This is due to the permeability of the casing, and how much air can get to the product during storage. Of course all storage from production is to be in refrigeration.
From opening, there is approximately 5 days shelf life given on label, however it seems to last alot longer than this in reality. The pudding might dry out if left exposed.
To prevent drying out, you can cover with a thin layer of fat, or wrap in clingfilm.
Alternatively, when approaching the use by date, you can slice what's left over and freeze individually, so that you can use one at a time, instead of defrosting all at once.
