Also, all of the above. Recently, I've had 2 buckets of store bought parboiled rice (dry), stored in mylar with oxygen absorbers go rancid, before their best buy date! I don't know what could have happened other than somehow something must have been bad or moisture got in before storing. I have also had issues with storing sugar in a bucket in our pantry (without mylar) near onions and once when a batch of onions went bad, the smell permeated through the plastic bucket and made the sugar smell awful. Great lessons learned. Now we store sugar in glass jars. I have yet to figure out what to do with the rice moving forward.

I am a newbie but I've started using mason jars that are vacuum sealed in addition to the other three methods. I don't know which size oxygen absorbers to use on gallon mylar bags

Mylar bags all the way. I watched several of your videos with the different containers and the mylar seemed the best way for us. I put them in 5 gallon buckets with gamma lids. I mostly use them to repackage flour but also for beans and rice. I use glass jars for pasta, chocolate c chips, milk powder etc and I have a vacuum sealer to take out the air.

I just got into dehydrating meals and storing them into mylar bags with oxygen absorbers.

Mylar and 02 are overrated inmo plus you need to be cycling your stuff anyway. Flour for example will last ten years just in an ice cream bucket I know from experience

Mylar w/O2 absorbers, as it is more economical than #10cans. I do however, stock some #10 cans of freeze-dried items I can not produce myself.
