Can canned food (like tuna) be refridgerated for months then put back in the pantry?

Best Answer
If you are talking about putting a still sealed can into the refrigerator and then after a few months moving it into the place where you normally store canned foods. All this without opening the can... Yes that is fine. As long as the seal of the can isn't compromised, the contents of the can won't spoil.
