An obvious off-topic question.., but here goes.
I've got several white plastic buckets (that used to hold a variety of icings/jellies etc. from a local bakery). I've washed them, rinsed etc. and am now storing pastas, beans and the like in them. They seal fairly well, but quite frankly I'd feel better if I could actually suck all the air out of them. Isn't there a way I can do this without having to purchase dry ice or lots of mylar bags/oxygen absorbers? I figured with all the brilliant minds we have on this list I'm sure that somebody has been able to do this successfully.would you please share? TIA Lisa
