Where is the best place to buy bulk dehydrated foods ,like , eggs , milk , ect
There is no single "best place".
Latter Day Saints (Morman) Bishops Storehouse's are normally open to all public for a day or 2 every week. There pricing is pretty decent on #10 can packed dry goods (pasta, oats, flour, beans, rice etc). And about the best price for powdered milk (envelope packed for long term storage). If you don't have a bishops storehouse nearby, they also ship, but the pricing then isn't as good.
Excellent to get a very good base, without having to get into the process of Mylar packing bulk purchases into 5 gal buckets with O2 absorbers (25/50lb sacks of base goods, as an ex).
Winco will order in bulk bags of bobs red mill. Cash and carry will have various bulk bags in stock.
Remember, always stock what you eat & to rotate it out as well.
Don't forget whatever seasonings/spice you enjoy. Soy is inexpensive and handy.
Sugar and Salt can be stored indefinitely, won't go "bad". Repack into moisture free container with food safe moisture absorber-don't use O2 absorbers for sugar & salt.
Huge $ savings doing such, else you are losing money by not using it.
Some may be a defined loss, usually (for us) it's cooking oils (shorter shelf life). For us it's factored into the overall savings, so no big deal.
