| Flossies... When you buy these in bulk, how do you keep them fresh? Maybe it's because I'm in the desert but I've bought them and put them in a Rubbermaid container and they still seem to get "harder".... hmmm. Any suggestions?

| They are "dehydrated". Probably in a hot dry climate more moisture evaporates. I would think that getting harder would be a good thing for a chew toy, as long as they don't get rancid.... |

| Try and get those little packets of dessicants. They're those little bagged thingies that come in most dog treat packages and prvent things from drying out. You can probably buy them in bulk. Judy |

I thought they took the moisture out so that things dont get moldy or mildewy. Nancy | |

| OOPS!!! You're right - they would just make them dry out faster. Good thinking, and thanks for noticing that mistake! Judy |

Store them in a zip-lock back in the freezer. | |
