I converted a closet into a pantry.
Usually what I put into it is stuff on sale. Like when one of the
stupidmarkets have 'Can-Can' (like Shoprite does/used to-they are no longer
in my area) sales. I stock up. Also, things I buy by the case like Cream of
Onion soup (which is not available in my area-I get it mail order by the
case).
That kind of stuff gets transferred to the regular cabinets as needed.
Stuff you don't use everyday like pasta, fancy condiments, extra containers
of pasta, etc.
