I personally like them for long term storage. I have some old bags from the late 90's and they are good as new. The only thing you have to watch out for is the chocolate bars and the chocolate covered cookies.But everything else can last for a while wihtout getting spoiled.

Re: RCW
The RCW/MCW's have a looonng "shelf life".
So that's why they are very rare to find plus thety are very coveted by colectors and pople like us.

Re: RCW
Actually these are more likely 80's or 90's production, as the RCW was phased out and replaced with the MCW circa 1999-2000 if I'm not mistaken. I guess you'd have to look at the spoon...80's would have MCI type spoon, and 90's the brown spoon. Good score nonethelesshousil wrote:....snip....99192N: 9919 is impossible, but 9192 could be a 2009 one....86252: 8625 is impossible, but 6252 could be a 2006 one...snip...is obviously a 2008 one..snip....

Re: RCW
Man I wish I could get a case of RCW's... its those Oatmeal cookie bars - why are those so damn good - and more so .. why don't they make these anymore?
I pay $25 for a complete and non-separated, unopened RCW. That means if I saw a case like this on U.S. Ebay I'd be bidding up to $150 not including shipping... so yeah - super nice find on that case.
I'm jealous.
