Canned some powdered gatorade to keep it dry longer
-
The cool thing about mason jars is they're reusable. This let me buy the big tub of powder at half the price per oz, and cost me a few cents in gas. This is how we put one over on Big Liquid, my friend
Drink goes in. Pee comes out. The house always wins.

You don't even need to vacuum seal it.
Just a silica pack would be more than enough.
Source: bought a few containers on sale a few years ago, all are fine.
Just closing the lid on those jars is probably overkill tbh.

Unlike heating your oven
wrote on last edited by [email protected]In the ballpark of 40 cents, less if OP is making his own energy.
Actually, even less is he slid these in after baking a lovely lasagna.
On the other hand, maybe hassling OP over his choice of method to preserve some electrolyte powder wasted the most energy.

I really gotta start using mine. I keep forgetting I own it.
I use it for the coffee beans and to seal a pour over every night so I have a non watered down cold brew for the morning ready to go.
I chop bags of onions into half onion portions and celery and carrots into 2 piece portions for soups and stews. Tomato paste into 3oz portions. Curry paste into portions for individual recipes. We make vodka sauce into a 4x recipe and freeze that. Yesterday I made a full instant pot batch if black beans and frozen them into can sized portions of refried beans. Mine has a pulse function so I reseal chip bags.
I use it a lot and need to find dedicated counter space for it. Start looking at stuff that you think would either work better if it were available in single use form or stuff that is a pain to make but freezes well.

Ben’s wife swears by them.
I hate that I understood that

This is probably unnecessary. The powder itself should be very shelf stable so I would have just repackaged it in vacuumed sealed bags or get an attachment to vacuum seal the jars (vs heat canning).
Ditto mason jar vacuum sealer. So convenient!

You can order food safe packets of silica beads to absorb moisture
But can I eat them?
-
Bro what are your gatorade needs such that this is necessary?
It sounds like it was necessary for OP because their Gatorade consumption was too low.

Anything's edible if you're brave enough

Probably be more cost effective to buy an amount you can use before the can corroded. That's gotta be like years and years old can. Can't imagine the product even stays good that long. Work smarter bro
Friend, I feel like you might be living your life without the polestar light of Steve1989MREInfo. Please witness the sublime majesty of his important dullster content about decades-old drink mixes.

Couldn’t you just put it in the fridge?

You can…

I have a vacuum sealer machine with dedicated counter space that I use for sealing things in bags pretty often, and a cabinet full of Mason jars that I use for everything (including drinking glasses). I just never think to put the two together!

Why is that better than putting the powder in reusable jars?

It has to do with Cardi B, Megan Thee Stallion, mouthy right wing influencers and what the proper levels of vaginal moisture is.

Ben Shapiro once tweeted that the vagina should not be wet during sex, and he said his doctor wife is the one who told him that, and everyone mocked him relentlessly for it.

I'm not sure who I feel more sorry for in that story.

It's called dry oven canning. The oven heats up the contents of the mason jar, so when I put the lids on and let them cool, the air inside comes to a lower pressure and we get a vacuum seal. Same notion as you see with jars of salsa, where the little circle on the lid pops up only once you crack the seal
Just a note that dry canning is pretty bad and has a much much higher chance of botulism than other canning methods. (Botulism spores must be kept at-heat at 160C dry heat for over 2 hours, not the oven temperature, but the full temperature of the medium itself)
It doesn't matter here much because it is already powdered, shelf-stable mix, but in general.
