Does this product contain MSG? Thank you.

The unnamed "spices" could well be a hidden source of MSG. check out Truthinlabeling.orghttp://www.truthinlabeling.org/hiddensources.htmlAlso, annatto, while indeed a natural colorant/flavoring, causes bad reactions in many people, including digestive and behavioral issues, hives, and more.http://fedup.com.au/stories/2016/1378-160b-feedback-from-annatto-petition-2-january-2016#violenceNot to mention that sodium benzoate has been associated with ADHD, asthma and cancer.

I've never used achiote paste before. How long will this keep after opening? and how should I store it?

My grandmother told me to use unrefrigerated paste, powder or seeds only 6 months. After that the taste diminishes and you then have to use double. But if you refrigerate it well it should keep for years. If you have it in oil, it should be refrigerated lest the oil goes rancid.

Anyone make Guam red rice with this?

I try, and it’s a hit or miss when I do.

Since your Amazon sticker covers 75% of the info on the back of the box, can you tell me if this needs to be refrigerated after opening?

I'm sorry that happened to you. We do not package our units that way. Yes you should refrigerate after opening.
