[pct-l] Resupply Food Spoiling

[Diane at Santa Barbara Hikes dot com]

Not only does some of it go stale but much of it will take on the  
flavors of other things until everything seems to have the same nasty  
taste.

Mainly nuts have gone stale for me. Freeze-dried Just Fruits have  
gotten soft, but that didn't matter.

Things in original packaging seem to survive.
