Storing Gulps

hixsta · #1 05-04-2011, 10:08 AM

Need some advice on storing Gulps. We been having some hot weather is WA and I'm finding some my sealed packs starting to go off and smell funny. I have frozen some other packs - is that an option? Can you freeze and defrost Gulps and they'll still work.
Any tips would be appreciated. Cheers

gulps normally smell funny. What do they smelll like? When it gets hot here I take mine out of the baot and store them inside. I find that they sort of melt otherwise.

When it starts to get hot yor better off storing them in a fridge or a cool pack if you're out fishing. I know adam Royter does this as you always see him with a little bum bag cool pack in the berkley DVD's.

I just keep them in the hatch of the boat. Never had a problem. If you leave them in the direct sun, that's when you'll have problems with them melting.

Yeh, keep them in the shade in a insulated pack, I have never had a problem with them melting.

Hi mate,

Just use a soft plastics bag, or another good option is a lunchbox.

You can fit up to 4 of the smaller bottles in it.

I use containers I brought from Coles. they cost me $3.25ea. it is meant for beetroot.
it is about the size of a can of Baked beans and comes with a strainer as a bonus.

I keep all my plastics in these containers, No spills, No smell and last for ever.

also allows for neat storage in the boat.

I use a 250ml rectangular tupperware container bought from coles. It has a round airvent cover in the lid which when closed creates a vacuum seal so that it becomes leak proof. Cost around $4 or so.

I looked for Modified Pizzas but found nothing in Perth?

What Pizza shop are you at, not after Gulp containers but enjoy a good Pizza.

The airtight food containers are great. Easy to access the products and can fill them up with juice. No leaks.
