Default Question about ceramic tile grouting

wrote:
I just installed tiles in a small entryway area (about 5X7) and it
looks good. Now I need to grout it. I have an almost-full bag of
Latex Portland Cement Grout--PM Sanded. There is a label affixed to
the bag that says "Bonded - Use before 2001". How crucial is this
expiarion date? Thanks.

Plaster and mortar can absorb moisture if stored a long time. For the
cost of a bag of grout, why risk a nice tile job? I'd buy new, just to
be sure.
