      I don't know about preservation, except that I always put a bay leaf in with any grain product. It kills the bug eggs. Even packaged products like spaghetti tend to have bug eggs. Other than that, my only philosophy is to buy what's on sale and buy enough that I don't have to run out soon. Eight years ago butter went on sale for a buck a pound. I bought a hundred pounds and froze it. I am still enjoying that bargain!

  • No, but I see no downside in being prepared for an emergency, regardless of it's nature.
