Alternately, just get one of those large metal tins often sold around
Christmas filled with caramel corn and various other flavors.  After
Christmas they were about $3 (with popcorn) at office depot.  Perhaps not
completely airtight (though close), easier to open, and won't melt.  (I'd
avoid the caramel corn if using it for smoker fuel :)
