Store your legumes, flour, oatmeal and nuts in the fridge or freezer. They won't get weevils or insects, and will last longer.

Can brown sugar be stored in the freezer?
Sharon from Minneapolis, MN
I do it but I double wrap in plastic bags that are sealed well.
I was raised doing that very thing and still do. I put sugar (brown and white), flour and cornstarch all in the freezer.
It was my assumption that we did that to keep the bugs away (if their ever were any that is) and nearly 55 years later I still to it to this day and have yet to see a bug in any of it.
