Just put it in the freezer in the bag it comes in.
Most of this shit has been frozen before it reaches the supermarket anyway.
The amount of bread we wasted before moving our bread to the freezer was crazy. Most of our bread gets toasted anyway, but the microwave handles the rest.
Buy better bread!
Takes me about 10 days to get through a loaf, depending on what we’re eating.
I don’t know any type of better bread that would last that long outside of a freezer.
the… the bottle hack is for things like popcorn kernels that you can pour…
whoever closes a bread with the bottle hack is the true evil hiding in plain sight
Chaotic neutral and the bread goes in the freezer
Where is twisting then wrapping the bag back around the bread?
The way I see it, that is basically the same as a twist and tuck.
what is the bottle hack?
- cut the neck off a plastic bottle
- thread the end of the bag through
- fold the bag open around the bottle neck
- close the cap, trapping the bag between the bottle neck and the cap.
I’m sure it works but any other method of closing the bag from the top two rows are better imo, at least for bread.
Cut the top off of a 2 liter bottle and put the bread bag through the neck, spread it around the neck, then put on the bottle cap.
sounds like a lot of work when I can just leave the bag open
Why even put it back tbh
You put the bread in a bottle and you can just put the cap on it to keep it fresh. You can just pour it into your toaster after that!
🎶please don’t forget to close my bread that’s in a bottle, yeah🎶
Bottle the bread?
Idk
We have to lock ours in a safe because our cat’s an asshole
Oh, you’ve got a carb nibbling goblin, too? If we accidentally forget to put away the bagels, the bread, the muffins, the cookies, the cake, the insert whatever carb treat here… We will inevitably wake up to find tiny holes chewed out of the bag or box and shredded crumbs everywhere, including stuck to the little asshole’s fur.
We would like to see the evidence
I put mine in the fridge. Why? It lasts longer.
That’s actually false. Bread is one of the few items that turn bad quicker in the fridge than on the counter. https://www.realsimple.com/food-recipes/shopping-storing/food/bread-storage
Oh I don’t mean homemade. I meant regular bread. I don’t bake. I cook. But good to know!
Yeah, good point, but that article isn’t talking about what’s in this picture.
Store-bought sandwich bread usually can be kept in the fridge without much change in texture. That’s because it often contains additives and preservatives that keep it fresh longer.
I live in a hot, humid environment. Keeping bread in the fridge helps it to stay good for multiple weeks. If I leave it out, it molds way quicker. I also sometimes will store bread in the freezer to keep it fresh even longer if I know I’m just going to make toast out of it.
I just never bake mine.
Freezer is my preference. Stays good for very long and keeps the texture and freshness. Put it in toaster or microwave after if in a hurry, otherwise you can just put slices in the fridge so you have unfrozen ones for the breakfast.
No slip knot?
A slipknot works great! It’s done in a second and easily undone as well.
Jokes on you, de-aired, twisted, twist tied and tucked
Just like my balls.
When you say de-air, do you gently squish the whole loaf before twisting as well to effectively vacuum seal it?
Yes
Lawful good and chaotic good is so much work for diminishing return. The best way to do it is to use back the tag so you know when to throw this bag of still good bread into the fridge.
I’m chaotic neutral!
Neutral evil AND kinda lawful good, but using a second larger bag instead of a bread box.
I do neutral evil because I haven’t seen a reason to do anything else.
You’ve never ended up with stale or moldy bread? I’m envious.
Bread is a stapleware, as such it needs to be eaten. Keeping the bag open for easier (tactical), time-critical access is a thus a necessity.
That’s why I live that chaotic neutral life.
Because of that? Not that I know of. From it being much past the best before date of course.
I tried the rubber band. I tried the clip. Neither work.
Only the fridge does. And that works well enough. I either tuck it, or I take it all out and keep it on a tray. Open. If I keep it for long enough to make it dehydrated, it’s my fault.I use the twist-and-tuck and the fridge in combination. Works well. When I worked at a restaurant we did the twist-and-tuck, but never needed to refrigerate bread because we went through it fast enough.
In my case, twisting it just causes too much moisture and sogging. So the twist-less tuck, keeping the air changing, is actually more intentional than lazy.
I think in my entire life I’ve only ever seen one or maybe 2 bread boxes.
I have an old bread box; but I don’t use it for bread.
Did you know you can put your weed in there?
Did you know you can put your weed anywhere? Some places have better results but you can still put it there.
I hide my weed in the bread.
In that case, does it become a weed box? Is a bread box still a “bread box” if it doesn’t contain bread?
This is brilliant 🤩
I am neutral evil - a twist and tuck.
You mean chaotic neutral. Neutral evil is just tucking…
