amount of food to store

Lots of discussion about bread and very little mention of yeast. Sure the stuff lasts forever in the freezer but what if the freezer goes down?

I keep it in the vacuum sealed Mylar in the freezer. I would say that once you pull it out it would be good for 2 years at least. Just refrigerated I have had it last 3 years past the date. I keep a jar that I pull yeast from the freezer to use that year in the fridge. I also keep powdered butter and milk along with the other stuff. Once opened I reseal the bag when it goes back in the freezer. In the 1lb bags it is cheap enough that everyone should have at least one in the freezer.
