We just purchased a large lot of these direct from a Defense Reutilization Office (DRO) Source. Although actual use is always classified on these kinds of bids, our information is that these are purchased for Executive Branch use, not for our troops in the field. That usually means these go to underground bunkers for continuity of government use by strategic military leaders, congressional members and sometimes even White House staff or leadership. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial; color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYou can expect to get 25+ years out of them in the can - and probably as many as 30 to 40 since there is no water or oxygen in the can to spoil the fries!!! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePreparation\u003c\/b\u003e: Either eat right out of the can or rehydrate and use like regular fries. To rehydrate the fries, just wet them in cold water for 5 minutes, pat dry with a paper towel, and cook in the oven for another 12-20 minutes (at 425 F). If you like them crunchy, you can eat straight out of the can. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOnce opened they will last:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px; background-color: initial;\"\u003eup to 1 year in a Zip Lock bag with refrigeration once opened but not re-hydrated\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial; color: #000000; font-size: 16px;\"\u003eup to 60 days in a zip lock bag without refrigeration once opened, but not re-hydrated. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial; color: #000000; font-size: 16px;\"\u003eup to 5 days in the fridge once they are re-hydrated\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000; font-size: 16px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial;\"\u003eThese are perfect for storing and using for many years!
