My in-laws have just bare basics in their cupboard, and they get by. I just love the variety and choice if I want to change my mind (and stop extra trips to the shop too).

I literally have 5 meals worth to get me through to the next weeks shop. Time to get a sheep in my freezer! We are so low on meat at the moment that I have no choice at all.

Even when I was a poor tertiary student. Even now with all my attempts to use stuff up, I'll be going away with way too much in the cupboard. :( What can I say? I'm a food hoarder. But I have seen other peoples cupboards bare. It's a shocking sight and I do wonder how they cope. By going to the shop regularly I guess. Of course, that's not really an option for me. Meat on the other hand, I'm pretty sure I will run out of before we go. Farmboy's comment was that I go to town often enough these days that it shouldn't be that big a problem.

I hate seeing my pantry bare, but at the same time I can see hundreds of dollars just sitting there, waiting to be used. The same with meat! We were using up the last of our supplies in anticipation of a big stock up, and I hated having so little to choose from.
