[Nfbmo] World famous trail mix available at 2013 NFB convention

[DanFlasar at aol.com]

HI Debbie,
    As long as the plastic storage bag is kept  sealed, the contents should 
be fresh for a good while - I'm thinking 3 or 4  months at least.  I do all 
the mixing and bagging within 3 hours after  opening the bags and squeeze 
any extra air out of each unit.  The fruit is  already dehydrated so they 
last a long time.  The nuts are roasted so they  are more stable than raw.  
Secret, don't open the bag till  you're  ready to eat - and each time you close 
it, squeeze the air out.
   What can I put you down for?
Dan
