We always have dehy veggies, canned veggies of all kinds, and at least
a couple dozen cans of SPAM (don't knock it until you fry it).
Loaves of frozen bread, many cans of coffee, containers of frozen
milk and cans of evap... lots of home ground frozen meat (beef/pork),
and cases of TP and paper towels. And enough cat food and bird seed
to supply the Bronx Zoo.
I don't remember ever running out of anything, not even printer paper,
that's what backs of junk mail is for.
