Clearly, you've never been presented with a load of 8" Radio Shack-branded floppies...
"Wright Line" and "Wabash" branded floppies seem to share the undesirable characteristic.
FWIW, I don't think that "sticky shed" has much to do with humidity, at least according to the audio tape folks. "Sticky bleed" problems are much nastier. I think that the selection of a food dehydrator was merely a convenient source of a ready-made temperature-controlled solution.
The "Tapeheads" forum is a good source of information on this. --Chuck
