These oxygen absorbers protect your food for long-term storage. Simply drop a packet into the package before closing. Oxygen absorber packets limit the amount of oxygen in food storage containers, extending and prolonging food's freshness, preventing mold and bacteria growth, and extending the shelf life. Each packet will remove oxygen from a 1-gallon bag and removes over 99.9% of oxygen from each sealed, airtight package. Great for freeze-dried, powered, and dehydrated foods, including jerky, crackers, and grains. Set of 50; these are packed in sets of 10 to shield them from contact with oxygen, enhancing their effectiveness. Once a set is opened, vacuum seal any extra absorbers (or store in airtight jar) to maintain effectiveness. Best if used within 2 years. These must be stored in an air-tight glass container; do not store them in a plastic bag.
