Yes, I've been posting lots about prep, at least in part because writing about it helps me actually *do* it, and I'm going to H-Mart tomorrow so I want to know what-all I currently have, and also-- criticisms? Suggestions? (This list is just food; I'm actually pretty okay for toiletries, I think. Or at least I have a much better sense of what I need and what's enough.) I think I need somewhat more but not a *lot* more.

Proteins:
5 cans tuna
2 tins squid
3 jars pickled herring
1 tin sardines
3 tins anchovies

6 ounce salami
5 pounds frozen ground red meat
6 ounces vacuum-packed salami slices

1 jar maple almond butter
1 jar almond butter
1 jar sunflower seed butter

Vegetables:
3 cans peas
2 small jars pickles
2 jars kalamata olives
1 bag frozen broccoli

Arriving tomorrow are 18 cans of baba ghanoush (I maaaaay have overbought) and 3 pounds of kelp granules; arriving early in the week is 2 packages freeze-dried broccoli; arriving late this week or early next week is a gallon jug of spinach flakes. (With much thanks to [personal profile] siderea for putting me onto these things' existence.)

Cheese:
1 pound aged gouda
6 ounces jarred parmesan

Starches:
5 pounds pasta
10 pounds uncooked rice
1 box Manichevitz potato pancake mix
15 ounces breadcrumbs

Sauces:
2 5-ounce jars Worcestershire sauce
4 3.5-ounce jars pesto
1 jar sweet chili sauce

Spices:
1 jar Chinese five-spice
1 jar Italian seasoning
1 jar rosemary

(Spices are in addition to the substantial collection of spices already on the counter. Similarly, there is a substantial amount of cooking oil in the house already.)

Baking:
20 pounds flour
5 pounds bread flour
1 jar yeast
1 bag cane sugar
10 quarts almond milk
1 standard container baking powder
1 package chocolate chips
2 cans pumpkin
1 large can pumpkin

House also contains a sourdough starter, but I think more yeast is still required.

Insta-Food:
28 packages ramen
1 box rice crispies
1 box honey nut o's
2 boxes rice chex
1 package jerky
6 boxes Annie's mac'n'cheese
1 box Annie's microwaveable mac'n'cheese
3 packages udon
2 cans dolmas
13 pasta sides pouches
3 boxes oatmeal

I am probably set for insta-food, though given ramen's cheapness and shelf-life I will probably keep adding it as a hedge against the roommates not believing preparation is necessary.

Snacks:
1 box Cheez-Its
2 packages wafer sugar cookies
1 package pistachios
3 bags whole-grain Goldfish
2 boxes Saltines
1 box cheese sandwich crackers
1 box golden rounds crackers
1 box pumpkin pop-tarts
1 package keebler club and cheddar sandwich crackers

Treats:
1 package Hershey kisses
1 giant Lindor truffle
Loose fun-size kitkats
1 bag SweetTarts
1 Whitman's Sampler Valentine's Heart

...that is probably enough sweets. Probably.

Liquid:
3 gallons water
12 quarts lemonade
4 quarts gatorade
32 ounces lemon juice
3 quarts chicken broth

Some of these things have specific destinations-- like, breadcrumbs and worcestershire sauce combine with cheese and meat to make meatballs which get frozen (I need to either get some shelf-stable finely-ground parmesan or keep my cheese blend supplies up and do this early in the quarantine), pesto goes on pasta.
