So how much of these things do you have? Man I have a lot of holes in my inventory. My water storage is 6 months overdue for replacement. I have been trying to cook the beans and rice that are 2 years old but have not replaced them. Makes you think.

why not put the beans and rice in sealed Mylar bags with a oxygen absorber?

I did but they still degrade over time.

even with O2 absorbers this only stalls or slows mold growth. better to use or discard and start new.

I guess that would not pertain to me. My storage area stays between 50-70 degrees and under 30% humidity year round.

still will not last forever. good to rotate every couple of years for best nutritional value.
