Should I Risk This?

I have been on the lookout lately for some tins to store loose leaf tea in, but all the ones I have been finding are kind of expensive. I went to Sam's Club a few days ago for something unrelated to that, but I ended up finding this gorgeous gift set of tins that would be perfect for storing tea in, and they were heavily discounted since Christmas was over.

Problem is, there were cookies in these tins.

I bought them anyway, hoping that the cookies would be wrapped so I could give the cookies to someone else and keep the tins, and to my delight, they are wrapped! HOWEVER, even though they are sealed in plastic and I see no crumbs in the tin, there's still a cookie smell in there. What do you think? Would you risk it? No crumbs, no foul, right?

I really want to use these for my teas. :(

I would use them. Put them through the diswasher or hand wash them really good and let dry. You could always put the tea in ziploc sandwich bags then store the bags in the tins too.

I agree with Roda. No worries there.

haha I can totally relate to your paranoia. but as long as you wash them well, you'll be fine.

      High Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgA after being gluten-free for 6 months

      By RMJ · Posted

      It can take longer than 6 months for antibodies to drop to the normal range,  My DGP IgA took a few years as I got stricter and stricter about being gluten free  But having symptoms again could also mean you’re getting some gluten in your diet.

      High Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgA after being gluten-free for 6 months

      By TexasCeliacNewbie · Posted

      Hi, I just had my 6 month check after being diagnosed Celiac 6 months ago.  All of my panel numbers were normal except: Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgA (It is 31 with high being over 30)  I have also been having symptoms again. Am I not actually being as careful as I think I am or does it take longer than 6 months for this particular test to come back down?  I can't get ahold of my doctor this week as she is out.     Thank you!

      Diagnosis and further testing Celiac

      That is very strange, because it looks to me like two very different test results, but for the same test! It's definitely time to contact your doctor for clarity on this.

      Scott, thank you SO MUCH for this!! She has been through so much in the last three years as we've tried to track down answers. This language will definitely help me help her to reframe.
