Tupperware, definitely. I'm having problems finding Tupperware that's cheap, though. I guess I could go to dollar stores. The problem we had, was we moved upstairs from my mom to where my grandma used to live. We also got her problems with bugs in the pantry. Seriously, that woman had food from 1970 still on her shelves (soup, bake mix, etc...) I assume that's where the bugs came from. I had to have my mom clean the entire thing out because I could handle to do it. It was disgusting. Now we don't have bugs, but I still worry whenever I take out a box of cereal or whatever. GROSS.

I agree with those who said the freezer bags work fine but my experience they do work but not the regular ones I storage some of my grains there and after 1 month found holes in 3 of them that's when I decide to check every single grain flour and cereal
even on the cereal baby in cans those things can live...

I had a HORRIBLE experience and now inspect everything, only buy pantry items I can use within a month and/or keep them in the freezer.

I totally spaz out now when I see a moth :-(
