RE: A Beginner's Guide to Basic Pantry Preparedness for Emergency and Survival Situations
My local 'farm shop' usually has some good deals, I think a lot of their stock is from bankrupt shops and large supermarkets getting rid of close to 'sell by date' bulk items.
Currently they've got large 3.5kg flour bags (with added ingredients such as sugar, veg oil, etc. to make bread rolls) for only £1.00! (super-cheap) They go 'out of date' by 31st Oct and I'm not sure how well the flour would store. Any thoughts as to possible longevity @rakkasan84?
Thanks,
Robster.
As long as it's been kept in a dry cool location and is well sealed I would say its good for another 6 months after the date marked on the bag.
Thank you, I'm heading there tomorrow so I might get a few bags, cling-film them up airtight and stack them in the shed :)
Some reports of a long, cold winter (polar vortexes) for the UK so might be hauled up baking bread rolls for 3 months ;)
