I finally bought some storage containers for my flours and sugars yesterday at Target (after waiting and searching for just the right ones). These are from Click-Clack, a company in New Zealand. They are supposed to be airtight and you actually have to squeeze the blue butterfly-like tabs to take the lids on and off. You can actually see the air being squeezed out of the canister. I originally was looking for something with a pretty design made of porcelain or some like substance, but those are all priced at hundreds of dollars (at least the ones I looked at). These are utilitarian and they'll do the job, and they are priced at $13.99 for the large ones and down. The only thing I don't like about them is when you wash the lids (which aren't dishwasher safe - the canisters are though) is that they retain water on the inside of the white-opaque disc on the inside. It did dry out over time, but that was a surprise in the morning (after leaving them out all night to dry). They also come with a manufacturer five year warranty. A company that takes the kind of pride in their product where they back it for that long (nowadays) is a company that knows its' product must be a good one! :D I'm looking forward to many years of use from them.
