Why Put Bay Leaves in a Bag of Cereals: A Trick from the USSR
In Soviet times, many people put one bay leaf in each container with cereals.
Modern housewives very rarely use this life hack.
And in vain, because bay leaves, found in a jar or bag with rice or buckwheat, help prevent one very serious problem.
This forgotten trick should be noted first and foremost by those people who are used to buying a lot of cereals.
Why put bay leaves in cereals
Long-term storage of rice and buckwheat can lead to the appearance of bugs in the cereals.
To avoid this scenario, you should put a bay leaf in the package with the product.
The spice has a very bright and strong aroma. This smell does not bother a person at all (rather the opposite). But this aroma scares away pests.
Thus, the presence of bay leaves in the cereal package reduces the risk of bugs appearing. The stocks of the important product will be saved.
