I buy a few of these items each time I get groceries. These are added to my pantry backup plan. If prices go up, shipping becomes an issue, or we can't get to the grocery it's good to have some things on hand. I think most of us women think ahead this way.
A list of staples most people have in their pantry:
Peanut Butter
Rice
Canned meat ( like tuna and Spam)
Ramen Noodles
Crackers
Powdered items and such to keep in mind:
Powdered milk
Powdered eggs
Instant potatoes (could make some tasty dishes)
Powdered Cheese
Corn meal (lasts forever and can used for breakfast, lunch and dinner)
Dry yeast (homemade bread)
Rolled Oats and grits
Thought-provoking:
Vinegar( can be used to clean, for medicine and to purify water)
Coconut oil ( for cooking and fuel)
Bullion cubes (in rice or whatever can make some tasty dishes)
Lentils and pasta
Salt
Canned vegetables, chili and canned stew
Honey (lasts forever)
Canned fruit
Instant coffee

Rotation is important in food. But, a lot of the things I mentioned last for ages especially if they are in appropriate containers.

I always keep some things on hand. Or try to.

Anything that is on special goes in my basket, especially if it's a staple and will keep.

I have a pantry but would love to have the one in the picture. I am going to have to start using up and giving away things in the pantry and freezer since it doesn't look like my husband will be coming home. Have a good day.
