Re: Bugs in my flour

[ Edited ]

Once I purchased keebler fudge stripe cookies I believe when i was on hilton head on vacation. This was 35 years ago and I still remember it. I opened it up and bugs were nesting in it.  OMG I almost had a stroke.  I think the bugs got in at the point of packaging for the package was completely sealed. the cookies were hhalf disintigrated and they made little mounds like ant hills out of the cookies YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

I always wonder why can they not sell flour in resealable bags?  Thats one reason i never buy flour.

I'm LNL crazy for my pantry!  bugs freak me out! I love the OXO storage containers too.  I have another food pantry but most of that stuff is can items.

That's as bad as my jars.  I have a lot of L&L, but I use it for nonfoods mostly.

I just discovered these small ball jars ... I've been using them for all my spices too! Wish I had discovered the different size of BALL jars prior to investing in LNLs although I do love them! When I had my kitchen remodeled I added a larger pantry in my extra small storage room off my kitchen -- and I love how organized your pantry us! I hope you don't mind I might "borrow" your idea! Thanks for sharing

@homedecor1   Organize away. Smiley Happy    They also have 12 oz jelly jars and my newest find is 2 1/2 cup wide mouth jars.  I like the way they stack better than quart jars.  I ordered them from Ace Hardware for pick up at the store.
