Mountain House® freeze-dried foods are packed in airtight NITROGEN PACKED pouches or #10 cans. Up to 98% of the residual oxygen has been removed. Our unique canning process uses both vacuum oxygen removal and nitrogen flushing. Each #10 can is coated with a protective enamel inside and out for double protection, including the lid. Mountain House Pouches have a shelf life of 7 years. For best results, avoid prolonged storage at temperatures about 75° F (24° C). Mountain House #10 Cans have a shelf life of 25 years. After opening, we recommend using the contents within 1 week for best results and taste; using the convenient resealable plastic lid between uses. Treat any leftover food as you would fresh food. Our freeze-dried foods are easy to prepare-just add hot water...wait 10 minutes...and eat! If a heat source is not available, room temperature or cold water can be used, too. Because no cooking is needed, these foods require much less water and fuel than most fresh, frozen or dehydrated foods (further conserving these two precious commodities.)
