Ok all you food safety experts, here's one for ya.
Going on our canoe trip and usually take along some of that shelf stable bacon. Instead of cooking for a group this year, I will be cooking for just the boy and myself. On them packages of shelf stable bacon that you find sitting on the shelf at the store, it says to refrigerate after opening. Why is that?
Is there some sort of gas in the package that prevents spoiling or something?
The reason I ask, is we have a few meals planned but do not need a whole package. I was wondering if one could divide that package up and seal up with a foodsaver and still be good to go. What say you?
