You have to worry about fat content for storage time.

Thinks like dried beans, rice and barley will keep essentially.

Things with fat even if minimal become rancid, it limits storage time.. Temperature matters the cooler the better.

Air and moisture along with temperature are the enemy.

Moisture supports mold.

This thread is more about the current situation and immediate needs of folks that are crunched for cash on how to eat something besides TopRamen(tm) on the last $50 they have in their pocket.

We'll introduce them to long-term storage and that other stuff later.
