Remember the acronym MOLT when you are thinking about your food storage: the four enemies of long-term food storage are Moisture, Oxygen, Light, and Temperature. Using Mylar® Bags and Oxygen Absorbers inside a 1, 2 or 5 gallon bucket is your best defense against these enemies. Oxygen absorbers are made of a chemical compound, the active ingredient of which is a powdered iron oxide. Our absorbers are completely safe. While they are not edible, they are not toxic. No harmful gases are created, and the oxygen does not remove the fresh smell and taste of the product. There are numerous options available for purchasing mylar bags and oxygen absorbers. So, why do we say "just better bags?" What sets us apart? It's quite simple, really...our products stand out. And it isn't just a catchy slogan; our bags truly excel, as confirmed by testing. Among all of our retail competitors, we earned the highest rankings for both bags and oxygen absorbers. And it's not just a slight edge. Depth: 0.5
