Give them to your local food pantry if unopened,  toss them is open.

 A question I have is" does anyone out there have seasonal allergies and have
 they noticed a difference? >>

Yes I suffered from seasonal allergies that would constantly become infected
and settled in as chronic bronchitis.  I was normally sick at least 4
(total)months a year.  I took 3-6 antihistimines a day.  I now take 3-6
antihistimines a month, maybe.  Haven't had bronchitis in a year since
quitting eating grains.  Ate some grains at Thanksgiving, caught a cold and
was sick for a week.

You make the call.
