I don't cut the top of the can all the way off and I level it to use
as a cover. I'm sure it lasts for many days in the refrigerator, but
I mix it in with many things or use as a topping. It is gone in a few days.

You stir it all up before using.
To be really paleo the coconut milk should have no guar gum. That is
a bean. These are the only ones in the US I know of that currently
are free of it:

If you live on the West Coast these are available at natural food
stores that are supplied by UNFI. For the rest of the country you
have to use Amazon.
