I dated this chick that was way into holistic all natural whatever. I swear you could put anything in a cardboard box or other plain packaging with “organic” on the side and she should buy that shit and than post about it changing her life…
Anyway, she had some mixed nuts or some such completely unopened. Left that shit in my cupboard and I swear not even a week later my place was full of moths!
It took days to even figure out where they were all coming from. Just suddenly it was end of days in my house. She came back over at some point and was like wtf is going on with these bugs!?
I forget which one of us found it but dude, that container was jam packed with life. Like a whole ass ecosystem in there one by one squeezing it’s way out through a tiny crack in the container! Fuckin Nasty!
With the source removed it still took a week or two for the place to be free of the damn things.
Yeah that’s a known problem with less treated food.
For this kind of food (nuts, rice, granola, etc…) a good way to avoid the “packet bursting with life” situation is to keep it a few days in the freezer as soon as you get it.
And also keep it in a sealed container like a glass jar. That way bugs don’t find a way IN through the crack in the packaging.
I have to do both freezer and container with my flour otherwise I get bonus weevil protein in my cakes.
The joys of living in warm humid climates!
Edit: a word
Not always. Some of their food is just full of eggs/ larva that will erupt into an entire colony that takes over your whole damn kitchen!

Well now you gotta go into detail. You can’t leave us hanging

It kills a good chunk of the pests.
