I have about 1000lbs of stored grains, beans, & rice. I packaged it up about 14 years ago, in mylar w/ 02 absorbers, and sealed in buckets. Until this past year, it has been stored in a cool basement. We sold our home last Feb., and had to place everything in a storage unit, until such time that we could start building our new home. It's been in storage all through the summer months, where the temp was often above 90-100 degrees.
I am wondering if this food is any good now at all. Is it still good for food but just less nutritious? Is it not good for food at all? Would it still be good to use as fodder for animals? Should I just toss it out?
We have a huge investment here, and I'm slowly trying to replace some of the things with fresh, but I'd really hate to have to toss it all out.
Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
