Ever wondered....

....what happens to marshmallows in humidity?

Okay, so I had never wondered before either. But, then we bought a bag of them the other day, and it became very aparent to me after one day of having them (even though they were tied closed with a twisty tie) that we were going to to have to find a better way to store them. So,just incase you're curious, this is what happens (at least this is what happened to ours).

They become... a giant.... mass.... of marshmallow! No individuals anymore. You can try to take one, but you soon discover it has morphed and become one with its neighboring mallow.

Our 'mallows now live in the fridge.

Since we've been here in Toledo, we've started storing many things in the fridge that we never had before.

For instance.... cereal and crackers. They go stale very quickly in the humidity.

And bread.... we always keep that refrigerated now, since our first loaf we bought was molded by the next day.

Oh the joys of humidity! Any tips on storing food in this humidity would be greatly appreciated!
