I don't buy too many things in that large of an amount. I did buy that
brown basmati rice. It expires in Aug. and it will be cutting it close to
get it all used up by then. I kept some of it in the bag to use right away
and the rest I put in a large Rubbermaid container that I initially bought
to hold a gluten free flour mix. I have since used up the bag and there is
about 3/4 left in the other container. I think I have one such other
container.
