Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Dried foods should be stored in cool, dry, dark areas. Recommended storage times for dried foods range from 4 months to 1 year. Because food quality is affected by heat, the storage temperature helps determine the length of storage; the higher the temperature, the shorter the storage time.
Detailed explanation-2: -Don’t store food on the floor, because this can encourage mice, ants and other pests. Keep the storage area dry and not too warm. Remember that some types of food might need to be kept in the fridge once you’ve opened them – follow any storage instructions on the label.
