Got a bag from 2013 looks unopened has caps on the bag. Does it go bad?

I would be willing to say it might be, but it should have an expiration date on it. Typically (in my experience), it is around the bottom left of the bag. I wouldn't risk it, $5-$15 dollars is better to waste than a trip to the hospital.

Yes, it goes bad. There should be an expiration date printed on the bag, usually at the top.
If it's past due, don't use it. If it has gone bad it could land you in the hospital or kill you.

No joke.
