You have to eat nuts pretty slowly for this to be a problem in my experience. I have had nuts go rancid but they were really old. It’s like sauces - they say “keep refrigerated” on the bottle but if you use them consistently it’s better not to crowd the fridge/keep space for higher priority things.
This! Nuts belong in the fridge.
Instructions unclear, nuts stuck to ice cream, send help.

Huh, I thought oils went rancid because of oxygen? I didn’t think cold slowed that process for oils very much.
Cold slows many chemical reactions, including this one. Nuts will last even longer in the freezer.
Removing them from an oxygen environment will also slow the reaction.
