yep. best bet is to leave the dehydrated bags in your pantry. keep the pantry cool. at my house we have a dehumidifier in the kitchen/pantry area. that seems to help with shelf life drastically.

Pick up parchment which dehydrates and separates from food better than plastic wrap since it won’t conform to the mix as well.

One question… Won’t storing food in the freezer cause condensation? Therefore risking spoilage upon taking it out for long trips?

[…] Dried food on the other hand is lighter but you will need to bring water to rehydrate it. Taking this food without need for carrying water is easy as long as you are sure that your campsite has a decent source of water. Take caution on the water you are going to use from ponds and streams. Clear and running water might be safer than still water. To be on the safe side, boil water or treat it. Boiling is effective but uses much fuel. Take a filter, purifier or SteriPen UV system which could be cost effective. These treatments could be pricey and heavy if you go camping often. A small pack of chlorine or chlorine dioxide tables or droplets is easy to use, cheap and small enough to go in your rucksack. These will treat more water than you are likely to use for a week. Remember to bring neutralizing tablets for your chlorine that will take the taste in the water. […]
