Food supplies (non-perishable)

[hmpf]

We've recently discovered that we have mice again (we had some some four years ago, but got rid of them - but we live right beneath the attic, and occasionally mice from the attic will find a way into our flat). So we've been busy mice-proofing our supplies, i.e. putting everything in jars and boxes, and that drove the point home for me of how much edible stuff I regularly keep in supply. Am I weird? Or is this normal?

Here's what I usually have at least one packet of at home:

- rice (arborio & basmati)
- noodles (spaghetti, lasagna, ramen and 'soup noodles')
- semolina
- brown lentils
- red lentils
- beans for chili (I don't know what they're called) - in a tin
- soy beans
- chopped tomatos
- pureed tomatos
- dried tomatos in oil
- asparagus (in a glass)
- ground almonds or nuts
- whole almonds or nuts
- pureed peanuts/peanut butter

Plus the obvious - flour, sugar, salt, spices and sauces, onions, garlic, and the various perishables.

What about you?

well, it's not the best hummus in the entire universe, of course. Fresh is always better. But yep! In cans.

Wow...colour me stunned (I mean, I know you can put pretty much anything in cans, but for some reason, hummus never crossed my mind).
