Nuts

You might not have thought about this one before, but nuts don't last forever. They can go rancid in as little as two to four weeks, as a result of their high oil content. Given how expensive they are by the pound, you should consider freezing any that you won't be able to consume before that happens. Not to mention, nuts freeze exceptionally well and will last between six months and two years when properly stored (check this with official food safety recommendations). To freeze, simply place the nuts in a sealed zip-top bag, and always remember to label them. The next time you need to use them, let them thaw at room temperature or cook directly from frozen.
