Best Storage

Cereal is a dry product and considered low risk in terms of food safety, so it should last up to a couple months after its best before date if is stored in a dry environment.
Can I Freeze It?
Yes.

Fresher For Longer
Soft or stale cereal can be refreshed in a hot oven for a couple of minutes to crisp it up.
Use It Up
Rice Krispie squares are a popular way to use up your cereal. Cornflakes can be used as an alternative crispy coating instead of breadcrumbs.
