I got 100 cans of peanut butter I am set... You're set because I don't live in your house hold. I loves me some peanut butter (smooth and creamy of course), I don't care for that crunchy stuff.

Peanut butter is one of those where the “use by” date has a ring of truth to it. My goal was to accumulate 18-24 months supply of 90-95% of my non-perishable (canned, bottled, and jarred) foods. I achieved that pretty easily.
A couple of weeks ago I opened a (plastic) jar of Skippy Peanut Butter that had a use-by date from late 2011 (a little over two years old). It was edible but like eating play-doh (even more than peanut butter is normally like eating play-doh ;’). I was able to eat it but knew that I needed to look at limiting the life-cycle to about 18 months.

That happened at my house also. It was like something happened to the oil in it.

I am still trying to find a local place to buy fifty pound bags of dried beans. The local whole foods wanted an arm and a leg for their beans.

My biggest lesson on food storage is that a full pantry doesn’t last long.

You can usually get a GOOD price on pinto beans at a mexican market.
Looks like you can get a 50 pound bag from Honeyville right now for about $60.00 plus $4.49 shipping.

Although it's a good piece, he lost my confidence with this....
“Most of you may not realize that Subway (a place I think of as somewhat healthy) just removed a plastic stabilizer from their bread recipe.”
....Did he sign the petition to ban hydrogen dioxide as well?

Was your peanut butter in a plastic jar or in a glass jar? Mine was the larger size in plastic.

I’ve had both turn rancid. Doesn’t pay to buy the twin packs in bulk at Sams.

Checked that site and didn’t see the case of canned bacon for $30?
