How long will a bag of Sara Lee sliced bread last in this? I live in Arizona and bread doesn't last very long here.

Since I don't live in a dry climate like Arizona I can't really answer your question. I can tell you it is not air-tight. We use it primarily to keep the counter top from looking uncluttered, plus the stainless steel finish matches our decor. We are able to keep our bread for weeks but I'm sure that's due in large part to sealing the bread up tight in it's original packaging. If you are looking for something air-tight, you should look at something like Tupperware or similar. Hope this helps...

If I were you, I would keep the bag in the freezer, and just keep out as much as you can use in a few weeks. If you keep it at room temperature for a long time it will go rancid, and it does take a while to go through a whole 1 pound bag (I have 1-2 cups a day, and it takes me at least 6 months).

Ours has a shelf life of about 6 months. My wife (also a celiac) loves this stuff. Also try Artisana brand nut butters.

Officially I don't know, but I bought a case and am still using them after 7 months. No problem at all and the bread is great.

The last time I bought a pack of these was a little more than a year ago while I was in the US and now I am back in Turkey. In case the company is still packing the same kind and/or quality of those olives, then I would say that an opened bag. when divided into several fridge bags or containers, should easily last for around a month. In our case, we- with my spouse- ate them all within a couple of weeks. For an unopened bag, I would think, it should be fine for another month but not much beyond that. Olives being kept in the refridgerator produces a whitish membrane (especially the green and/or pinkish ones) after 1.5-2 months, and that should go away when you wash them for a while under warm tap water. If I am a first time buyer of these olives, I would ideally buy a pack of them and if all is well order the next close to first bag's being finished. Bottomline, those olives (if they are still the same) will please you qualitywise. Cheers,

For what it's worth, I just keep mine in the original bag, tied with a twisty-tie, on a shelf in the basement and they do just fine. (I only use about a tablespoon every two weeks so a bag lasts a very long time too.) Maybe someone with a greener thumb will have a better answer.

Your question is quite relative. I bake bread daily, so no. Also, what does the expiration date on this really mean? It means different things for different products/medications (often nothing more than a legal requirement), so I would call the company to ask if this is a concern. I used the bag up in about two months.

Depends on type of bread, but at least a week. I love this bread box & have bought another for our summer home.

I would not store unwrapped bread. I believe you should wrap in plastic wrap or put in ziplock bag.

I have been putting them into ziplock sandwich bags and then putting the sandwich bags back into the paper bag. I then put the whole thing in a deep freezer. You will get about 35 sandwich bags full out of your 50 lb bag. I only use 1/2 cup a day, so I get maybe 6 months out of a 50 lb bag. Been doing it for years without any problems. Sorry, I'm not sure about the jars. Any moisture in the form of humidity will cause problems.

In my opinion it will not keep the bread any longer than if you left it outside the box; it is just a good way to organize it and keep it off your counters or in your microwave (as storage). Yes, leave it in the bag and you do have to clean crumbs out or you could get bugs.

My purchase was made in New Zealand.. The fabric is very sturdy and does not shed, splinter or flake.. I used one bag for almost three months in my toaster. I would occasionally wash with luke-warm water-- let air dry-- Pop my two pieces of bread and any cheese- into the toaster and comes a really nice melted cheese sandwich- No pans- No melted butter-- just warm gooey, taste sensation-- I believe it is a whole lot better than micro-wave action--Bread really tastes so much better!-- I hope this works for you-- I have also put in thin slices of ham and also had good luck with Canadian Bacon--- You know I am hungry -- the toaster is right there on the Kitchen counter--YUM My purchase was made in New Zealand..

Mine is in a large canister, have had it for a year, and the bread today was just as good as the bread I made last year when the can was new. Use it in everything cakes, cookies, breads, biscuits, pie crust...every thing last longer.

I usually go through a jar in about a month and a half. It's been good that long. Previously I got a big gallon bucket of the same thing. And as long as it was refrigerated in an air tight bag it lasted over 8 months.

The last bun in the middle would be funky. Make the whole recipe and freeze the rest. As a side note, it has been our experience that home made bread lasts longer. Cool it as normal and store it in your fridge.

I freeze bread in them all the time. I do know someone who double bags her bread when she is traveling a long distance just as an added protection and since these bags are so nicely priced, you can afford to just that.

I leave it in its bag. I always throw at expiration regardless of the bread box.
