myrialux and I, remembering the week we were trapped in our house by the Snowpocalypse almost a decade back, went through our pantry and discovered that waaaay too much of it was made up of expired foods. So we tossed it, made an extensive list, and hit 4 different stores to stock up, hoping people wouldn't think we were panic-buying. OTOH, between the pantry and the freezer, we can now eat a varied diet for a month without leaving the house if we rely on frozen veg for the fresher bits.

We did a lot of baking during the Snowpocalypse, so made sure that we were stocked up on nonfat milk powder, cornmeal, buttermilk powder, brown sugar and various other bready and desserty type ingredients.

And to the people who were horrified that we didn't keep pasta on hand when I posted during the Snowpocalypse: we have three bags of pasta left over from a 6-bag pack myrialux bought at Costco a while back, and a shelf-stable container of gnocchi. But we have way way more rice, so there. (Calrose, jasmine, Thai sticky, brown long-grain, forbidden, and I think one more variety.) I like rice better than pasta.

I think we have almost as many varieties of rice as we do vinegar, because we keep buying specialty vinegars for various recipes, using 2 Tb of them, and shoving them into the pantry.
