    Purina's response on my question "can I freeze

    We always suggest keeping it in a cool dry place. You can freeze it but make sure the moisture does not get in it for fear of molding. Also check the bottom of the bag to see when it was manufactured and try to get the freshest bag with the closest date which will be more current. Thank you...
