I have found that packet suet has a limited shelf life once opened. I thought I was unable to make decent dumplings until I threw out what turned out to be rancid suet and made them with a fresh packet!
Suet, once opened, has a very limited shelf life and will go rancid.  Once opened, if you do not need to use the whole packet, freeze the remainder; once properly defrosted it is a good a fresh suet, and it lasts for years in the freezer.
