These are great questions and I'm g...Hey Bill!<br /><br />These are great questions and I'm glad you brought them up. 6 months is definately the rotation cycle for water. There are a few larger water drums that the manufacturer states can hole fresh water longer (and these are the dark black water barrels that you can also find in our stores) but 6 months is the rotation for any other barrel, and would just be a safe practice to continue with any water storage.<br /><br />As far as our Freeze Dried products, I'd stick with the shelf life we list on the can, which, with most products, is no longer than 10-15 years. There are a few that you could push a little past that, but the nutritional value is going to drop drastically if you do, along with the taste. What we list on our website and on our cans should be the range you go with, which is also why we encourage food rotation in your storage.<br /><br />Thanks so much for the great questions!In The Kitchen With Honeyvillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17616215829230863648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3738016939467433054.post-25900003938181026942012-12-30T18:45:49.937-08:002012-12-30T18:45:49.937-08:00I recently discovered your wonderful site, and Hon...I recently discovered your wonderful site, and Honeyville foods by a great introduction from Nutnfancy on Youtube. ( <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZkqp7VR-zM" rel="nofollow">The Honeyville Solution</a> )<br /><br />Great site, love the free education, keep doing what you're doing, we love it!<br /><br />In that video Lisa mentioned that water does not (necessarily) need to be rotated every 6 months, that that was what used to be taught. But here you said it does. Many folks realize that storing water, like food, is not hard, but it is also a bit of science. Are you just erring on the side of caution, due to the scope of the brief article perhaps?<br /><br />Because also on the Nutnfancy vid, Lisa says the shelf life of most of the freeze dried foods in the #10 cans is 20-25 years, while on here it is usually listed as 10-15 years.<br /><br />Just curious, Bill~Billnoreply@blogger.com
