Guest guest Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Excellent info., thank you for sharing. I placed several bulk items into my refrigerator awhile back and was never quite sure if that was ok. Two of my main concerns (and the two items I have the most of in the fridge out of all of the bulk) are nutritional yeast flakes and tvp. I keep my container of dry vegan cheese ingredients that I mix together ahead of time (nyf, corn starch, flour, dried chiles...) in the fridge and have never noticed any change in flavor but it is good to know that it is indeed ok to do so (granted if the bulk can be stored the same as the Red Star brand).

Shawn, I've never kept tvp in the fridge (well, not dry, un-reconstituted tvp), just in an airtight container in the closet (my pantry).
