Question I was wondering what is the best way to store natural almonds purchased in bulk from Sam's Club? Also, since I am pregnannt and eating alot of fresh fruit, is there a way to keep fruit fresh for a longer period of time?
Answer Hi Denise,
Almonds can be stored in the refrigerator or freezer for long term storage. They key is to store in air-tight containers. You should be able to store them for up to a year in the refrigerator and even longer in the freezer.
