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\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 avocado!!! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePreparation\u003c\/b\u003e: Rehydrate avocado in cold water for 1 hour, drain excess water, and eat! You can use them on the sandwich, on a toast, in scrambled eggs, in guacamole, in salads, as a salad dressing, or any other way. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAvocados contain quite a bit of potassium, dietary fiber, and fats. Avocado oil alone is almost two-thirds (71%) monounsaturated fatty acids - aka the \"good fats\", shown to lower LDL, or \"bad\" cholesterol and increase HDL, or \"good\" cholesterol. Additionally, avocados are loaded with nutrients such as vitamin C, vitamin K, vitamin B, vitamin E, and vitamin A. Avocados are also a good source of dietary fiber. So they are just a great item to have in a disaster preparedness kit. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOnce opened they will last:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"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\u003eup to 60 days in a Zip Lock bag without refrigeration once opened, but not re-hydrated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: initial;\"\u003eup to 5 days in the fridge once they are re-hydrated\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"background-color: initial;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are perfect for storing and using for many years!
