Thank you again for such good info. Good to have a variety of items. This is a little off the subject but we found at Dollar Tree a 3 ounce plastic bottle that is called protein boost - it has 10 grams of protein and 0 grams of sugar. The strawberry banana doesn’t taste bad. I forget what the other flavor is but didn’t like it very much. They were located where the first aid type items were. Thought it might be something to keep in a bug out bag. They are small and give protein and a little fluid. And don’t have to be refrigerated until opened. They taste better cold. The ingredients don’t seem to be too bad. Thanks again for all you do.
I vacuum seal mason jars with sugars, flour, corn meal and other dry goods. But they take up a lot of space. I vacuum seal vacuum bags and store in lidded bins.
The vacuum seal works fine. When vacuum sealing the aforementioned dry foods you need to place a piece of coffee filter or white paper towel inside the jar and tuck it over and around the top of the product so not to suck the powder into your vacuum sealer. It's like making a small paper cap to fit over what ever you are vacuum sealing.
@@evamyrick9803 I have heard when you use oxygen absorbers with sugar the issue is partly that the container shrinks and compresses the sugar, causing it to become hard like a rock. But when you vacuum seal sugar in a mason jar, because the glass physically retains its shape and does not compress the sugar, it remains powdery despite the lack of oxygen. Is this true with your experiences after storing for a long period?
I'm hoping someone could help me. I'm a diabetic and I'm looking to store splenda brown and white sweetener for long term storage. Would you have any ideas
Great info & tips !! i use organic stevia granules..that comes in the little individual packets.. could i store that the same way ?? in the glass jars ?? it also comes in liquid..but i like the packets better..
~~~ Thank you so much. Your channel is needed my dear friend. I listen and get information to say to my channel friends. Also I ask people to visit your channel. ...GOD'S JOY my friend.
AlaskaGranny Same as sugar. Looks like sugar, taste like sugar, does not spike blood sugar. No aftertaste. My stores have just started getting it in. They also have it in brown Monkfruit that is like brown sugar. White and brown is granulated like sugar. When I could not get it in store I ordered from Amazon. Asians have used it for years it is grown there. It does cost more than sugar but worth it. I think the brand is Lakantese.
Oh wow, I'm glad you mentioned not to use oxygen absorbers in white sugar. Thank you
You are welcome.
Great video! Great information.... I did not know how to make all those different concoctions!
Yes, there are a lot of products out there.
Thank you again for your wonderful useful advice.. God bless 💚👵
Blessings to you, too, Dolores.

Thanks for the heads up on the protein boost. I will look for those the next time I get to shop at the Dollar Tree.
I order 50 pound bags of sucanat and use and store that mostly. It has a modest molasses flavor.
I have never used sucanat.

I read that it is not recommended to vacuum seal white sugar, so I don't. Do you have luck with that?

Good tip about honey. Ive never found real honey for $1 so if its in the dollar store its almost guaranteed to be corn syrup
Thanks for watching.
Wow...this video was jam-packed with information! Loved it.
Thanks, prepper5785.
Thank you 🙏🙏❤️
Do you have to vacuum seal sugar or can you just put it in a jar or canister?
For maple surple I add a touch of vanilla and nutmeg
Wonderful video!! Loved this info.
So glad you found my video helpful.

I don't use or store stevia, but I suppose you could store the packets in a glass jar and they should be fine.
I just bought some agave syrup!!
Enjoy.
can I make the homemade syrup (white sugar and brown sugar) for long term storage?
I would not recommend that. Store sugar and water, make it as needed.
is vaacum a good idea for storing sugar?
Just airtight.

Alaskan beautiful granny
Thanks for watching.

What about bugs? Do they hatch within the sugar as they would with flour if oxygen absorbers are not being used? Thanks!
No
@@AlaskaGranny thank you!
why not use oxygen absorbers?
Monkfruit does not spike blood sugar. Taste like sugar!
I am not familiar with monkfruit. How do you store it?

Do you sore honey in their plastic jars?
I try to repackage honey into clean glass jars.
Powdered sugar, how can you make it if you have no electricity
If I have no electricity I probably won't care if I have powdered sugar!
@@AlaskaGranny GREAT answer.
Thanks, chas.
Why not use oxygen absorbers for sugar

Sugar stored cool, dark, and dry does not go bad.
