Letter Re: Advice on Storage Food Shelf Lives

Mr. Rawles:
There is so much in your blog about stocking up, and it is appreciated, I can tell you. But I haven’t seen all in one place any big reference on how long I can expect things to last. Some of the “shelf life” info out there [on the Internet] is unrealistic. (Do they pull these numbers out of the sky?) This info is also scattered on dozens of websites, not all in one place. Can you recommend any one good reference? Is that info in any of your books? Thanking You In Advance, – Lydia. J.

JWR Replies: The detailed shelf life reference information that you are seeking can be found in a 15-page long appendix that is included in the “Rawles Gets You Ready” preparedness course, which is presently on sale, for a short time.
