[QUOTE="Ready_fire_aim, post: 4338164, member: 50626"] For storing dry goods i like either mylar bags and oxygen absorbers or in mason jars and oxygen absorbers. Works great for: beans, rice, oats, sugar, flour, instant potatoes, popcorn kernels, macaroni noodles, etc… Also we do home Pressure canned meats/foods. Obviously store bought canned foods are excellent as well and most last at least a couple years longer than the expiration dates if stored properly. We keep some of the expensive freeze dried stuff too. We don’t have a giant stockpile. But we try to keep enough to last our family a couple months just in case. Once we opened some Mylar goods that were about 10 years old. A lot of it smelled funky and had kind of gone off. Fed most of it to the chickens. Since that experience, we make sure to rotate our stock every 3-5yrs ish. Everything is still fresh that way and we actually eat the food instead of just storing forever then trashing it. [/QUOTE]
