sugar, flour, and salt?  I have mine in glass canisters on my counter so they are handy when I need a scoop or two.  I keep the larger bags of salt and sugar in my pantry.  I keep my extra flour in the freezer.

Are people still using canisters?

I use plastic see throughs with tightly fitting tops. I  keep them in the cabinet above my work area. No canisters.

I'm sure I'm out of the loop, but I'd think only bakers would have these things on their counter tops. I'm a diabetic and have no sugar in the house. I have reduced sodium Morton salt in the container it came in a kitchen cabinet. I think I have a small package of flour that is 2 years old there as well. I don't know if it's good or if flour expires. I doubt I will use it.

I keep all that stuff in my pantry in LocknLock @tends2dogs  I don't have canisters. Used to.

Mine are in Lock & Lock containers in the cupboard. I only wish I had enough counter space to keep them out.

I have 2 canisters from a set, one with DH's sugar for tea, the other has my vitamin packets and Stevie packets.  I want 2 large glass canisters but can't find what I want.  The sugar one needs to be large enough.

I still keep my canisters on the counter. I bought them years ago and still like looking at them. They are highly polished aluminum and teak lids.

Sugar is in the largest canister. I keep the flour in a sealed glass container inside the second canister.

The third canister has tea bags. My husband drinks at least one cup of tea a day. So it is easy for him to get his tea bags.

I keep flour, sugar and rice either in plastic zip bags or in lock and lock containers once the bags are opened in my pantry. Salt and pepper in a cabinet by my stove. All of my other spices in a rack attached to the door of my pantry.  I have known people who kept coffee in the freezer but I have not heard about flour in the freezer.

Lock & lock XL buckets got mine in now and in freezer.

I keep mine in L&L in the pantry. I have lots of counter space, but I prefer uncluttered counters.
