[QUOTE="MacFromOK, post: 3595930, member: 40864"] Believe it or not, I've eaten Ramen noodles that were still good after 5 years. Absolutely no old/stale taste whatsoever, and they were simply stored on an open shelf in the kitchen. Dried beans are another item that stores extremely well, just keep them dry. Humidity is not your friend with any dry foods. Canned goods of any type should keep for a few years, but be aware that highly acidic foods (e.g. tomatoes and fruits) will eventually eat holes in the can. We never had honey go bad, but it will eventually crystalize (at least, once it's opened). But you can reheat it to melt the crystals and it goes back to normal. Most any type of airtight containers work well. Dry foods in zip-loc bags and tupperware type containers (that seal) will last for years. Just a few thoughts. :drunk2: [/QUOTE]
