{"product_id":"harrisons-stay-fresh-food-preserver","title":"Harrison's Stay Fresh Food Preserver for Bird Food","description":"\u003cp\u003eA bag of Harrison's is at its best the day you open it. After that, oxygen gets to work on the oils in the grains and seeds, and by the time \u003cem\u003eyou\u003c\/em\u003e can smell the difference your bird has been noticing it for a fortnight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStay Fresh is a simple fix: a short spray of food-safe nitrogen into the bag, which displaces the oxygen before you reseal it. No oxygen, no oxidation — so no rancidity, no browning, no flat, stale flavour that makes a bird go off its food.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen the bag and take out what you need.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpray Stay Fresh into the bag \u003cstrong\u003eafter every single opening\u003c\/strong\u003e — this is the part people get wrong.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePress the air out, reseal, and store cool and dark.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow much extra life you get depends entirely on that discipline, and on keeping the food in its original Harrison's bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNot just bird food\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChop fruit and vegetables, put them in a container, give them a spray and seal. Chop prep for the week stops going brown at the edges by Wednesday. It works in the fridge and the freezer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy nitrogen\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNitrogen is about 78% of the air you are breathing now. It is inert, tasteless and does not react with food — which is exactly why the food industry uses it to pack everything from crisps to coffee. It is not a preservative added to the food; it simply takes the oxygen's place above it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQuestions we get asked\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it safe around birds?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is food-safe nitrogen with nothing added. As with any aerosol, spray it into the bag rather than into the room, and do it away from the cage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many bags will one bottle do?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDozens — it is a short burst each time, not a soaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I still need to refrigerate the food?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor a 5 lb bag you are working through slowly, cool storage still helps. Stay Fresh and the fridge together are better than either alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it work on other brands of pellets?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
