Storing dry kibble in the freezer or fridge?

Is it possible to store dry kibble in the fridge or freezer? Which would be better? I buy the smallest bags of Fromm but it’s still takes my dog about a month to go through one bag. Can I just stick the whole bag in the freezer/fridge? Do I need to defrost before feeding or can I just feed it out of the freezer/fridge? I’ve read kibble starts oxidizing within two weeks after opening the bag.
anonymousMemberI may be mistaken, but I think you asked this question before.
Per the search engine, my response to one of your previous posts:
“Be careful with having multiple bags of kibble open at the same time. They go bad. I only open one bag at a time and store in tightly closed containers in the fridg. In a pantry I wouldnât trust anything after 2 weeks. In the fridg, maybe a month to 6 weeks. Thatâs it”The freezer is controversial, some say it is okay, some say it is not. Some oils can go bad, rancid if frozen. So, it may be best to call the 1-800 number on the specific kibble in question and see what they advise. I tend to avoid putting kibble in the freezer.
Krista BMemberI contacted them and they said they wouldn’t advise storing it in the fridge or freezer because moisture can build up and cause further oxidation. I guess this makes sense. Too bad they don’t offer smaller bags, oh well.
