[pct-l] Resupply package - freshness

[dicentra]

Seal well. Maybe use the silion packets (toss at resupply) to keep things dry. Remember, these products sit in warehouses and on grocery store shelves for months on end as well.

Packit Gourmet is familiar with thru hiker resupply and will ship to wherever you need.

HTH.

Subject: [pct-l] Resupply package - freshness

I'm also wondering about freshness of ingredients in boxes that may be
sitting for six months before use.  I've used JustTomatoes products before,
for example, and after enough time, moisture, etc they lose their charm.
I'm wondering if we make any trail mixes that include breakfast cereals,
etc, if we should expect them to not be fresh & crispy after a few months in
bags in the box.  



Any tips on what does, doesn't work?
