Someone asked me if we might have to throw all of our stored wheat away, and start over due to the stem rust epidemic.
I phoned the Bishop's Storehouse in DC and was told this:
"If there is a problem with any of our foods, we are notified by headquarters and we remove the items from the shelves." We have received to date, NO notifications from SLC regarding any problems whatsoever with the wheat that anyone has purchased from our warehouse."
I then asked, "as far back as 2007?" and I was told, that as far back as forever, if there were to have been a problem with anything it would not have been available for purchase. They wouldn't have had it in the building.
So, rest assured that anything that you have stored in your home from the Bishop's Storehouse came to you as good, edible food.
I strongly suggest using oxy absorbers for both buckets and cans, and those mylar liners inside you buckets for all storage (except no oxy absorbers for sugar cuz it clumps into a brick and one #10 size sugar cube doesn't fit into many recipes.)
It's always better to err on the side of safety.

Also, Please Please, if you haven't already done so, let me know if you are going to attend the Couponing Class. So far I have 5 responses. I have to let this dear woman know how many are going to be there so she can make up her hand-outs. I know that summer is a busy time. There is much going on in all of our lives. I just need to know if you'll be there. That's all.
Happy Wednesday!
