Starting Your Food Storage*
The following tips will help you begin storing food:
- Protect food storage from heat. Store all products away from heat
and sunlight. Food stores best at 70 degrees or cooler.
- Protect food from moisture. Store products on shelves or raised platforms,
rather than directly in contact with concrete floors or walls, to avoid moisture
damage.
- Protect products from rodents and insects. Bulk dry food storage products store well in #10 cans, foil pouches, glass canning jars, PETE (Polyethylene terephthalate) plastic bottles, and plastic buckets.
- For best results, rotate food storage items.
*In some locations, storing food is prohibited or limited by law. When packaging and storing food, always obey local food storage laws and sanitation guidelines.
