The bulk yeast DOES last forever. In fact, I bought some when we first moved to Arizona. When we moved last winter, I still had one full package to give to a friend. And we do a bunch of bread machine cooking (or did before it went into storage) and homemade pizza crust.

Of course, there are just the two of us. If I was cooking for a larger family, I might have gone through it faster. We keep ours in the fridge too in an airtight container. When it comes in two-packs, we just open one at a time and put it in a jar with a screw on lid and keep the other in the vacuum package it comes in from the store. Those little individual packages are outrageous when you compare the cost!

Thanks for commenting, Meagan. And good for you on carving out the over the toilet shelf space!
