I like metal containers with tight fitting lids.

Whatever it is, it has to be air-tight and stored in a cool, dry place.
We use either metal tins (with tight-fitting lids), Ziploc (TM) bags, or
Rubbermaid (TM) containers.

Tin box with air tight container. Example: ITC's container $2.50. I
also personally happy with Upton's plastic bag containers with Zip
lock. Thanks.

If you're willing to spend the money, the Bee ceramic cannisters with
the gasketted clamp down lids are nice. Black, green, white, and blue
are semi-obvious color codes.
