Eggs...The life-extension with oil is likely because it keeps oxygen from permeating the egg shell.
I am guessing you know about the fresh egg test where put egg in water and see if it floats...If it floats to top, it is bad due to too much oxygen.

Yep I know about the float test for eggs.
Like you I thought it was the oil maybe keeping oxygen at bay.

If you hard boil and pickle eggs, they last a very long time.
