Why should it be consumed in 4-5 days after opened?

No preservatives, I'm guessing! Keep it in the fridge in a ziplock and you may stretch that out a bit. It's got a different texture to begin with as opposed to regular bread even when it's just opened so it takes a while to get used to it and the storing of it.

These are natural breads, -no preservatives. I keep mine (in a ziplock bag/air squeezed out), in the fridge, cheese/lunchmeat drawer...it's an easy grab all together, and it generally keeps for 1-2 weeks, -though it's usually used up in a few days. Have bought this product & similar & handled this way for almost 20 years, -with good results.

I never got a chance to try. My plan was to try it backpacking (without a stove), as I assume you might have been planning to do, but I never got the chance. And I did not like it enough to make it my main food source.

I usually leave the box opened for a ~3 months maybe 4 the most as I consume a LOT of it. I haven't noticed any problems in that timeframe as the little grains are as hard as the day I opened the bag and taste as good as the first day. I suppose if you can, use large jars of sorts to prevent too much moisture to get in the grains. Pablo

Yes, when it starts just going back and forth it's time to transfer the mix to a separate container and stick it in the freezer for another couple of hours. Of course, you can eat it as soft serve immediately if you like!

I doubt there would be any problems going a few days over 30, but I asked my Ophthalmologist that question. His answer was it would be best to use it more often during the day to be sure to use it up within a month because the longer it's open, the greater the risk of contamination. That makes sense to me, why risk getting an eye infection to save a dollar's worth of solution that might be left after 30 days?

In a restaurant I will usually throw away the leftovers as I don't want to take a chance of it spilling in my purse. At home I will keep it for 2-3 days in the fridge once opened.

If you can keep them in a Tupperware type container they should last a few days or longer. With this being emergency food you may not be in much of a situation to care about freshness though and I'd think each pack would get consumed pretty quickly after it was opened.

Yes, after opening, otherwise it won't last very long. If you leave it out overnight or something, don't worry about it too much, just get it back in the fridge. It may lessen the life, but not by much.

Mine has been open for a month with no ill effects. It's dry so I'm thinking it'll last a long time. If in doubt you could keep it refrigerated. I like the product for my protein shake. I get the PB flavor without all the calories. I also like that there are no added ingredients.

Once it has been opened it should be kept in the frig as I recall. I would call the manufacturer or look on the label if you are not sure.

That I can not tell you for sure. It depends on the date on the bottle. However, I have found that once it is open,it should be refrigerated

Once opened, you have probably 3-4 weeks. I was usually through a bottle in 2 weeks with no problems.

I just purchased this product, and the packaging states "refrigerate after opening."

I use is within the first 45 days... and never looked. Just looked at the latest container I just ordered and there is no "best used before ....." date. sorry . I hope that helps.

I would imagine you should start to use it up soon after opening to retain the freshness but there isn't a whole lot of product so it does not takes years to do this! (It will be gone within a few months of use if used regularly.)

I bought it for a surprise party. It came with cold packs two days before the party. I save in the refrigerator until the party. The left over were in the refrigerator for 4 days more and it was not spoiled. I don't know how long it last.

They guarantee that each bottle will be good for at least 5 more days after the juice is delivered to you. Beyond that, it varies by each bottle.
