What is the Oxygen Absorber and what should I do with it after I’ve opened a product?
The oxygen absorber packet contained in our packages of bakery products is essential to obtain a long shelf life. Even though the packet is not to be eaten it is composed entirely of non-toxic ingredients (including food grade paper and ink). Ener-G Foods has a complete material safety analysis for this product if you have further questions. The oxygen absorber can be thrown away once the package is opened.
