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.
Hate this diagram because who uses a bread box without any of the other non-chaotic evil options.
Chaotic neutral and lawful good is the GOAT
Drop the bread box and just gently squish the entire loaf before twisting and tucking to basically vacuum seal it. That’s my GOAT
This. For soft crumb American sandwich sliced bread, you want as little air circulation as possible, balanced only by not crushing the loaf. A bread box is a quaint place to toss the bread once you squish the air out, but without the bag it’s basically the same as the chaotic evil option.
This image is fairly old, and I have disagreed with it from the get go. Chaotic evil is tying as many knots as possible, forcing one to cut the bag open.
what is the bottle hack?
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!
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.
- 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.
I do neutral evil because I haven’t seen a reason to do anything else.
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.
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.
