Excellent tip. I put all my grains, flours, wild rice in the freezer, not for just a week. I keep them in there until I need them and then put them back. I gave our son a sleeve of Premium Saltines to eat with his Chili and he called me to take a look. Loaded with bugs, just loaded. I put them in a bag, took them back to the store, called up the manufacturer and got coupons and apologies all over the place. You know, we all have to be our own advocates, right????? Edie
PS - Happy Eating!!!!!!
