I am considering ordering the 25 lb bag. How long will the berries stay good if stored in a dry place?

It's supposed to last 6 mos in a cool dry pantry or up to a year in the freezer. I haven't been using it long enough to know if this is true.

Hi this is Alyssa from Palouse Brand. If wheat berries are stored in a dark, dry and cool place they can last for years.

Hi, it being a dry grain shelf life could be years if kept dry and dark. Rinsing??? would not do that in a attempt to preserve. By the time its comes from South America to here the stuff might be a year old already, would not worry about it. I / we eat about two cups 5 times a week and have never kept a 25 bls bag for more then 3 months though.

There is no information on the bag, or expiration date, but I would expect the shelf life of an unopened bag would be almost indefinite if kept in a cool, dry place. If you are using the tea regularly, its quality should be fine for as long as it takes you to use a bag. They are dried herbs, so again, store in a cool, dry place and it should be fine.

I'm not sure about the "best" way. Some recommend refrigerating, but I figured that wasn't needed until after the bag was opened, so that's what I do. They only last a month or so. Freezing is probably good for longer periods. I just store the new bags in the pantry.

Hello, Ms. Abaker,I bought just two of these bags, and most of the dates were moist enough. Therefore I ate them the way they were.As for the few dry ones, they are still edible as such; more chewing is needed. If you want to bring them to their natural state just after cropping, no chance. My mother used to keep dried fruits in water (especially prunes and peaches), for a few hours, but they never returned to their natural texture and consistency.IMO, children will enjoy the dates the way they are. I still do, despite my age.

I am so glad you asked! When the bag I purchased arrived, instead of that label there was a hole in the bag which was taped over with clear packing tape, and I could not figure out why they would ship a bag like that... Maybe they were expired because some of the berries were very dried up and I have felt bad for months now because I requested to return them. Now I feel better, if they expired in 2012 then that would explain why I didn't like them. Maybe they have a new shipment? It is a good price... The seller was understanding about the return request.

I buy the 25 lb bag and it lasts for about 5 months or more. I have a 8 lb. Chion. I put the food in smaller gallon bags and keep them in the freezer. The food stays fresh so I really never looked at the sell by dates. Sorry. My little girl loves this dog food.

I keep them twisted in the plastic bag just as they came. I put them in my pantry, which is dark but not cool. I live in FL. I use a scoop to rinse and soak and sprout for my bird. A three-lb bag lasts me a long time. I have never had any problems with these berries.

They are basically a marshmellow. If you bought them and did not open the bag, they would probably last. If you open them, I think they will dry out. Happy party!

So far, I had this product for about two months, and it's still good. As long as the product is kept in a cool, dry place and being stored in a airtight container or bag, it will last for a good while. Thanks!

Years if packed in glass jars and the fruit is very dry. If semi moist keep in fridge for years.

The seals are made by a heat bar and the bags are slightly melted and sealed together, I would think forever. The shelf life for dehydrated foods is greatly increased by vacuum packing. I don't know how long grains and fruit would last, it would probably depend on fat and/or water content.

I dont know the shelf life of an un opened bag. I go through the 4 pounds about every 4 months and even the last one opened seems fresh as the first one. I have not had a problem with spoilage. They are dry seeds, dont see any need for refrigeration.

Hi, I have not purchased these in a while as my husband can not eat as many sweet items as he used to. Never the less, these are a hard cookie or cracker which has a very long shelf life. Therefore if an item says sell by....... these items are usually good for as much as 3 to 6 months after stored on in a dry area. These things I learned during the years my husband and I ran a small family grocery about 20 years ago. The dates on packages are sell by not use by. The type of item in the package has more time of safe usage within a clean properly kept cabinet, refrig., or pantry.

When you receive them there is instructions on storing. But I'm sure it says in a cool dry place not necessarily in the refrigerator should keep for a few months. I ordered some months ago and didn't use them yet and they look fine. Hope that helps.

I keep food in starge bins in cool place out of sun. My purchases are usually every two weeks for a thirty pound bag. I have a 110pound German Shepherd. There has never been any quality issues even if stored for four weeks in cool place out of sun.
