My grandparents used to store cereal in the oven. As a kid I never understood, but it was just something weird cpsince I never cooked. Now I’m horrified that anyone would do that but suspect they bought it just for our visit and had nowhere to put the huge quantities of food they’d need.
Picture the groceries for a nice, quiet elderly couple. Now picture the groceries for a family with four boys eating everything in sight …. Yeah, our visits must have been the apocalypse for their budget, based on groceries alone

My cousin kept bags of chips and pretzels in the oven, and got really mad at me for preheating the oven without checking it. It was 20 years ago and we still fight over who’s fault that was.
