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.

      New issue

      I was taking medicine for sibo but it was not agreeing with my stomach at all.Was on gabapentin but it amps me up.I was taking in morning because it wasn't allowing me to sleep.This has always been an issue with medicine and me.Even going to dentist, the good shot that numbs you once, I can't take because it makes my heart beat fast and I get the shakes...

      Doctors and Celiac.com

      I showed one doctor I went to once because completely clueless of celiac disease and yes that one was connected to a well known hospital and she said oh thats just a bunch of people that think they are celiac coming together. I said um no they have doctors and knowledge behind what is being written. So bay area is Downplaying this site! SADLY

      Do Gluten Enzymes actually work?

      If you successfully digest gluten with enzyme supplements so it won’t give you side effects, your challenge won’t be worthwhile because the digested fragments of gluten also won’t stimulate antibody production or cause intestinal damage.

      Gluten free phosphate binders for dialysis patients

      You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance"...
