| | * Bagging: Bread normally comes in plastic bags, unless purchased fresh from a [[bakery]]. This plastic bag prevents loss of [[moisture]] from the bread, delaying it from becoming stale. The bag also prevents the [[deposition]] of mold [[spores]], by means of acting as a barrier. Typically, bread bags are held closed by a specialized clip mechanism known as a [[bread climp]] This is a small plastic square, which functions like a clip, but with no moving parts. | | * Bagging: Bread normally comes in plastic bags, unless purchased fresh from a [[bakery]].

Bread boxes have the same advantages that bags do, with the added advantage of protecting the bread from both crushing and [[vermin]]. Bread boxes are extremely popular in America and Britain, and inspired the phrase "bigger than a breadbox" | | * Boxing: Bread is also stored in bread boxes, a [[specialized]] container made of metal, [[ceramics]], plastic or even glass.
