What is a realistic storage life for Popcorn...??? And could popcorn be ground up for cooking...??
If you buy the stuff that's got the butter in it and you just toss it in the microwave, it doesn't taste very good if it's beyond a couple months after the expiration on the package.
I don't think so. I know it works, I am interested in having the supplies and tools necessary "Just in Case", post SHTF.So you going to try it then?
Wouldn't that end up like the broken Styrofoam that statics to everything when you open a Christmas present that's come in the mail?Has anyone tried making flour from popped corn, I am guessing that so far we are talking about grinding the kernels to make corn meal
For clarification, you said popped corn. Did you mean popcorn, not popped yet? Or did you mean after it is popped?Has anyone tried making flour from popped corn, I am guessing that so far we are talking about grinding the kernels to make corn meal
As an FYI (up to you if you want to try it or not of course): Millet is the unsung hero of grains. It is gluten free and serves well for things like a chicken fried steak or other breading-like scenarios. It also works well in combination with almond flour in bread substitutes though still not a “real” bread. I use it for Hubby without issues.I don't know, but thought that perhaps if it worked, it would be better than some other flours that make my digestive tract malfunction. I may have to try it when I don't have anything to do.
I've read about it, as a gluten free option. What I read is to grind it up right before you use it, don't grind it and store the flour.As an FYI (up to you if you want to try it or not of course): Millet is the unsung hero of grains.

Thank you for the option, this is just one of my outside the box ideas,As an FYI (up to you if you want to try it or not of course): Millet is the unsung hero of grains.

No deals, but I put ranch dressing, butter, and chili powder all melted together on mine!!I am just finishing my last bit of popcorn that I bought in early 2015 when we bought a 50# bag for $55. We had gotten some other raw bags for Christmas gifts and such that we ate too b/c it wasn't packed for LTS. When I got that bag in 2015, I put it all in food saver bags, put it in a bucket, and stored it in a cool basement. One of the bags got a hole punctured in it and that bag was pretty stale. We ate it and gave some of it to the birds. Another bag of it didn't seal well that I noticed right away and I put that in jars and vacuum packed it with my food saver.
That jar that I sealed with the food saver is the one we are working on now and it's still good....I'd say it retained about 90% of the freshness. Although it could be that we were eating a different brand before starting this jar and perhaps I liked the other brand a bit better? I don't know for sure, but it was still good. I'm thinking about ordering another 50# bag and putting all of it in jars insead of food saver bags so I don't have to worry about puncture and they'll be easy to see on my shelf too.
It looks like the price has gone up significatly since my last order. I'm not surprised. If anyone sees a good deal or knows of a good deal on popcorn, please post it here
