Not specifically about Yonkers, but it's a lot about moving and combining households (or not moving, and the lack thereof.) Stephanie found this great advert in the local newspaper, which explains how you would know if your spices were 15 years older or more. I'm sad to report that more than a few of the spices that I had in my house before I moved were older than 15 years. You have to imagine that by THAT time, the $1.79 amount of spice may have gone bad, or lost most of its taste.... But that didn't stop me from moving that stuff to Yonkers! We did a big throw-out of those square tins-- had about 5 or 6 of them! MMMMMMM.... Mustard seed.
