We Tested Seven Ways to Store Bread and Found Two Winners

Bread is a kitchen staple, but it can quickly go stale or develop mold. To find the most effective storage method, seven different techniques were tested against each other. The test compared methods including paper bags, a paper-plastic bread bag, the freezer, a bread box, the refrigerator, reusable food wrap, and the original plastic bag. Ultimately, storing the loaf in its original plastic packaging and wrapping it in reusable food wrap emerged as the two winning methods that outlasted all the others.
