Default Bread box?

Do you use one? If so... What kind?

I ask because my Greek Flatbread got moldy again! It does not expire until
the 23rd. My honey whole wheat bread from Costco is perfectly fine.

I have written to the manufacturer about the bread. That would be Alexis.
Because not only was it moldy but crumbly like it was spoiled. The
ingredient list says they put Calcium Propionate and Potassium Sorbate to
control spoilage. But apparently those things are not working!

But I got to thinking. I have two bread boxes. Both are the same model.
Wood. I had to get them when we lived in NY because we had mice. And since
it was a military apartment and we were relying on their exterminator to rid
of us of the mice...well...oh well! Anyway... Both boxes are probably 9 or
10 years old. I am not even using one currently. It is just out in the
garage. But the one I am using? Well, maybe the porous wood has gotten
some mold spores in it? Just a thought.

I just ordered a new one. Chrome with a clear plastic front on it. And it
says it is ventilated in the back. My current boxes are not ventilated and
they are dark inside. From what I have read about mold, it needs darkness
to grow. So I am hoping this new one will do better for me. In the
meantime I am going to go put box boxes in the give away box. My bread will
just have to sit out on its own until the new box arrives. It is a large
size and it got a good rating. The reviewers said it will hold two loaves
and a pack of English muffins.
