Trash bags are not designed to withstand high temperatures and can melt in a hot attic. It's best to use storage containers or bins that are heat-resistant for attic storage to avoid problems with melting plastic.
What is a good recipe for caramel corn?
Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F and melt butter in a pan. Add brown sugar, corn syrup and salt. Boil it and stir in vanilla and soda. Pour everything over the corn in a baking dish to thinly coat it and then put the dish into the preheated oven for one hour.
At what temp does corn syrup freeze?
Candy corn is not a pure substance so it cannot have a set freezing point. The sucrose (sugar) in candy corn chemically decomposes before it gets hot enough to melt. The butter in the candy corn is non-crystalline and so, has no defined melting/freezing point.
Can you heat food with plastic bags in a microwave?
if you want it to melt then yes, but otherwise no No it will melt. --- There are special kinds of plastic wrap that can be used in a microwave. However, I often use normal plastic wrap to cover up a bowl with soup when warming it up in a microwave and it does not melt at all. It gets a little soft but that's it.

How do you make things airtight?
The best way to make an airtight bag is to use one of those fancy bags that you suck the air out of. If you are looking for a cheaper way then plastic bags (garbage bags) will work. You just make an incision and suck the air out and close it before the air comes back in. One can make airtight bags using existing plastic bags and a lighter, soldering iron, or another device capable of melting the plastic. For small airtight bags, one can start with a plastic sandwich bag where three of the sides are already made and generally already airtight. In order to seal the open side, one can lay a flat, metal object (or another material that won't burn, this is the guide) along the area one wishes to seal and run a soldering iron (or any metal utensil heated enough to melt the bag) along the outside of the guide. The two pieces of the bag should melt and fuse into an airtight seal if done carefully. This technique can be scaled up using garbage bags or larger pieces of plastic to create larger bags.
