Caramel Apple's Shelf-Life

Okay. Who hasn't done this, please don't just say it's me. 

I was honestly surprised when I went into my pantry yesterday to find fruit flies. Why you ask???  Well I thought, or maybe didn't think about it at all, that the caramel apples I bought in early October for a company picnic were "shelf stable" never thinking they would rot sitting on a high shelf for almost 2 months. 

There were creepy bugs inside the plastic container and flies all over. I started screeching like a baboon and grabbed them, ran outside with shorts and no shoes (28 degrees mind you) throwing them in the rubbish. I them summarily took off my shirt and threw it away. There were 24 apples. 

My husband and daughter thought I had gotten attacked, but then couldn't stop laughing. 

I'm still grossed out!
