Oat cereal should be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. This helps to prevent moisture absorption, which can lead to spoilage. Properly stored oat cereal can maintain its freshness and flavor for several months. Avoid storing near strong-smelling foods as it can absorb odors.
