Hey Kart, I appreciate the heck out of this prepping stuff and the ping list. I just ordered Mylar bags and oxygen absorbers. I'm going to put dried beans, oats, wheat, and corn meal in them and then in 5 gal. buckets. What is the shelf life then? Is it still the same as your list on post 42? Thanks!

This is from the food storage experts at LDS. But remember oxygen, temperature and moisture are your enemies when it comes to food storage. Stored food kept at only 10 degrees above room temperature has half the shelve life of the same food kept at room temperature.
