I buy many items in bulk and put them in labeled containers. I was having folks over for dinner and "gluten-free" was requested, so decided on arrowroot to thicken the gravy. Dinner's ready, yum-yum, let's eat! Except... what is that awful taste?! Oh, that would be the tablespoons of Cream of Tartar that I dumped in that poor gravy instead of arrowroot. I actually googled whether one could die from cream of tartar overdose! (no, you can't :)
