"Nancy2" <Another issue that isn't rocket science. The bread is getting
moldy
because you too much humidity/heat where you store it. I have a
stainless steel breadbox inside an upper cupboard - no problems. If
it's a fresh baked item that I know doesn't have preservatives in it,
I keep it double bagged in the refrigerator.

I'm with you Nancy. This has been an interesting thread. I keep our bread
double-bagged ( I use the bags that come inside cereal boxes; good stuff!)
in the refrigerator. The humidity here is usually somewhere between very
high and under water. Polly
