Storing Crackers for Long Term Food Storage! A Preppers Tips :)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 вер 2024
- In any SHTF scenario this prepper will want to have crackers with her. Here are a few simple tips in order to do just that :) Also if you are couponing to build your prepper's pantry or stockpile then this method may be valuable to give your hauls their long term storage life :)
This method uses Food Saver vacuuseal bags and 200cc oxygen absorbers and the original cracker box! Got this idea from Obsessiveprepperaz and northcarolina prepper who have excellent videos out on how to store crackers in glass jars! Check their videos out too :) Thanks for the inspiration guys :) Long live the cracker! :)
To your health, longevity and peace of mind,
The Healthy Prepper :-)

Comments: I am thoroughly intrigued by your thoughts and ideas on my videos and welcome all comments. They inspire me and keep me thinking! Together we build better mousetraps.
I have vacuusealed bags older than 5 years and still going strong. I will keep an eye on them :)
It’s been 8 yrs are they still good?
Got 4 kids under 5 trying to stockpile those things!
Love it! “Never say crackers with a parrot in the room”. Lolol 😂. Great video and thanks for sharing.
😆
How long do they last this way?
How long do the crackers last when vacuum sealed that's the only thing I'm finding is when people do videos like this they don't actually tell you how long their products have lasted them when they prep them however they are prepping them. So that would be the question like how long do you store the crackers before you find that they go steal on you
I love this idea.
In thinking about it, though, I think I would seal them individually because the top has been opened. In a SHTF situation, you'd have to eat all 4 pretty quick or they would go stale.
Thank you for caring enough to share. And love the bird!
Your bird is so funny. Every time you say crackers, it would go crazy. LoL 😂
Have a wonderful day.
Would love to see you open this in a few months. Thanks for the idea.
Great idea. Been wanting to do the glass jars, but really didn't want to use my quart jars for that. Now I know how I'll do it. Thanks for sharing
This is fabulous. I was just given a bunch of Ritz crackers. On my way to my food saver! Thank you!
Done this with crackers and different cookies as well. It works good! Thanks for the video!
I think it is great this network of prepper's! Even if it isnt for prepping...just the fact that we can save money buy ensuring our foods last longer! Blessings
How long do they store for with this method? Thanks for a great video.
Good thing about vacuum sealing , you can build up a good food supply once it might not be available.. I've been saving cookies , coffee, candy, etc.. not eating all of it vacuum seal some..
Nicely done
Try putting that dam bird in a bag and seal it up!!!!
It was not her finest hour :(
No way! the bird in the background makes it like organic and stuff.
Alan Taylor ...lol
If you don't like the bird just move on to another video.
Bird was soothing to me as I watched
I think the problem is with those who are easily distracted, hard of hearing, cannot multi-task, or are just plain ole' insensitive.
Next time, place the bird in its cage RIGHT next to your work station, and pan over so we can admire it's beauty.😋
How long are you trying to save these for? Food saver (or generic brand vacuum bags) are air permeable. This means that they will allow air THROUGH the plastic. Slowly for sure, but it will still come in. The seal will only be good for between 6 months and a year, even with an oxy absorber in it. Call the company and talk to them about it (I did).
Did you ever eat the crackers? How were they and how long did you wait?
I wholeheartedly agree OPAZ :)! Thanks for all your inspirations along the way :) Everyone, I highly recommend her videos, they are amazing and informative! :)
That bird is not annoying at all.
Lol, I didn't even notice the bird sounds until you mentioned it. I didn't really hear it over the sound of my birds answering yours 😁
Great idea Ian :)
How bout them Oreos!! 🤔🤗😋💕
I had to crack up! Love the nickname"OPAZ" :)
Thank you!!! I think I like this better than any other way I have seen! I will be trying it shortly!
Oh, I must try that! I have to admit I am a bit of a Pringles fan and they are so nicely lined up they might distribute the pressure evenly so as not to crush :) !!
Hey BG! :) Happy to hear from you :) Hoping all is well on the island :)
Happy always to share any ideas along the way :) Love hearing other's ideas too! We are eternally trying to build better and better moustraps and it's always easier as a group :)
Bird was NOT a problem, at all. Makes me want one as a pet actually. Will be trying this technique. Thank you so much for caring enough to share.
Impressive
Thanks! I'll pass that on to hubby prepper :)
It's been 9 yrs. now🙂. I am just wondering if you opened any of them and if they still taste fresh as the day you bought them from the store? I am wanting to do this type of prepping for cheez-it and gold fish crackers. Would like to have them last a long time in food storage as can be. Thank you
Always a good thing :)
nice .i cant hardly wait to try this .Its good fun food for the soul...blessings ...las vegas
You will rock the stage for sure! :) Go get'um sista! :)
You can often buy the jar attachments at farm stores.
Go order the top sealer they are on eBay &also the company that sells the units. You will be amazed how often you will use it. Each time I open jars of dehydrated food I reseal it with a quick push of the button&they are protected for a very long time again. I don't have the regular jar size as I have a tall container &use it to put jars into and seal them. Jam jars, mustard jars, fruit jars as long as it has that little ring of sealant in the lid can be used. It is great & makes jars recycled.
Realy cool - I’m doing the RITZ your way ! Thank U !!❤️
Took yer idea & ran with it. I used self-make seal bags. Put two packs in, cut to length bag, and did what ya did. Also, I put a zip-lock bag in as well as a oxy-zorber.
What I don't use can seal back up in zip-lock with another oxy-zorber.
How long were they stored and how did they taste!
I have a question? I am new at foodsaver prep. I was wondering why do you put it on wet mode?
Ha ha ha... Well I love all those Squackypants babies. My bluecrown conure normally steals tho show in any situation... Lolol
Yes, I have thought about this but it takes up a lot of space.
you can put them in jars and pull the air out it really works
LOL, I am a bit partial to the little devils myself too :)
Hey Girlfriend! All is well! Been busy preparing for the seminars I have been asked to give showing how to store and prep. Doing a whole lot of studying,research, learning and practicing! :-) But I always try to check your latest vids! Keep them coming! God bless!
Brilliant. Thank you.
I always appreciate your thoughts and input :)
I know, I have heard it all before ;) Newer videos are better as it is not so cold out now and the birdies are back outside :) Sorry for the extraneous twitters :)
This si so funny! I just the jar sealer in the mail 3 days ago! I got the regular jar and the widemouth jar sealer. then I watched The Coupon Preppers video on not needing those attachments and using the canister instead! LOL figures :) Oh well, I will have lost of fun playing with the new toys! :)
I'd love to know how long these lasted. Like how many years and a taste test 😁
I have a question. One of the first rules of long term storage is you can’t store anything with oils in them because the oil will always go rancid. Brown rice is a good example. It has natural oil in it so it can’t be stored long term.
Ritz crackers have oil in them. So my question is this…is there a recommended storage time for storing crackers this way?
I know 1 vid did saltines premium plus anotger spoke about tge 10%fat bummer
love this idea.. Thanks for the video..
Yes, here is what I have found: Spores need warm temperatures, a protein source and an anaerobic (no oxygen) environment and moisture in order to become active and produce toxin. Spores are not killed by boiling. Botulism is rare because conditions necessary for botulism include no oxygen, low-salt, low- acid, low-sugar environment at ambient temperatures plus moisture. (Source- Wikipedia).
So is it safe to use an oxygen absorber for Saltines or Ritz? I would think Saltines would be ok but not the Ritz?
I have a request. I would love to see your birds & any farmers markets in your area.
Love that. Thanks.

My next project too ... Thanks.
LOL! Your birds are having a prison riot over there.
Brilliant!
Thanks :) You are highly kind in regard to Mr. Squawkypants :)
Great idea thank you
Anything to save on space :)
I also removed them from the packaging and they are in there “naked.” Worked as well. I don’t think folks appreciate how important crackers are going to be if all power goes out and ya live in the city, not on a homestead…how ya gonna bake bread? Some things I won’t be able to do. Crackers and tuna, deviled ham, spam, packaged chicken, and the old favorite PB & J. 😂 If folks smell you cooking, ya may make yourself a target.
What model Foodsaver do you have?
He is a hoot :)
you are saving space too :))
thanks!!! hugs!
You never get sick of that bird?
Sorry but the bird is so distracting.
Cool!! This is my next project! :-)
Thank you :)
do you not need a 02 absorber? or you don't need to cut a slit in the lilt bags themselves
how long does it last ?
Very nice. :)
id just put it back in its box and protect it from light that way
Love this! Your parrot made things equally entertaining!
I see benefits to both methods but I don't have the jar sealer thingy for my vacuuseal :)
Most of my reading shows that vacuum sealing bags themselves aren’t airtight for actual long-term storage. Have you done any reading on that? Because we own this gadget, but the sites I’m finding say no to these.
S@#$ hits the fan
I'm thinking of making shortbread and storing using this method. Instead of using butter, I will use ghee since it has the milk solids removed, extending shelf life. Maybe even gingerbread cookies, too. Simple ingredients that won't be be unstable over time. Suggestions?
I am making a large batch of Scottish Shortbread cookies now using ghee to see if I can store them long-term.
@@WH6FQE
@@WH6FQE Use a Foodsaver and cool them thoroughly prior, as well as use the packets inside. Wax paper to separate. Don't bake in humid weather.
@@TheAlfakitty Well, not baking in humid weather doesnt really work since I live in Hawaii, it’s ALWAYS humid here, lol.
Because of the high humidity here whenever I store dry foods in mylar bags with oxygen absorbers I also insert a moisture absorber to get rid of any excess moisture that got in while I was packaging.
@@WH6FQE It was partly a joke. My family is Kama aina going back to the 1860's. Irish immigrant peasant workers for Queen L.
Dang it, the funny thing is I barely notice his squawks anymore --- but all my youtubers do :)
I do chips the same way!!
Looks easy butvtge bags were made r freezer not 20 25 yrs is my worry
Polly want a cracker.
And how long have they lasted ?
hi. Can you tell me the brand and model number of the food saver you used in this video?
Mine are in jars vacuum sealed.
Or subtitles. Properly visible (say it with me, dyslexia peeps.) subtitles. So I can mute the bird.
How long will they last?
The birds in the back make it hard to hear
Have you ever tested to to see if they stay fresh?
This would be easier to hear with out the avian-american singing the song of it's people in the background. But really right in my ear cuz earphones.😣💢😓
they get stale . they dont last long term. mason jars with 300cc and a coffee filter with 2 table spoon of rice ..
could you do this with boiled eggs?what food should you not do to? (suck the air out of?)
How long will they last like this after the expiration date?
How true :) Sorry about that. They have been relocated :)
I agree foodsaver the dammed bird annoying as all heck
I only have a cheapie food-saver an older model, can this be done with mine?
are they still fresh ?
Do you have to freeze them first?
Have you thought about botulism?
