Re: what do you consider "staples"?

Excellent topic.

I am lost without eggs, so they go at the top of the list.

I have been eating so many more eggs with this Weight Watchers thing,
and have rediscovered the beauty of the hard-boiled egg...

I also need frozen spinach on hand, as I use it in so many things. And
applesauce, as I use it to dress up things like cottage cheese and to put a
bit of fruit in our diet when fresh is not available.

Yes - that should have been on my list too, for the same reason, and DS
love it as well.


And usually, but not
always, I have got to have some kind of meat. But I guess that is not
considered a staple. Or maybe it would? I mean, I have to make two nice
meaty dishes a week, like a stew or soup, or a roasted chicken, pork or beef
roast. I can sometimes be literally surrounded by delicious things, but if
one of them is not the bodacious and abundant roasted muscle meat of some
unfortunate creature I am not happy.

LOL...I guess I see meat and most veggies as purchased frequently, so
not really a staple. But OTOH, we have three freezers and currently
have 5 whole turkeys, 3 or 4 hams, various chicken - parts and whole,
and some buffalo in the freezer. That would be the norm for us.
Normally rabbit would be on that list, but I don't have a source for it
here, other than Whole Foods and I don't like their source.


I guess I would suck as a vegetarian. :( But I do love creatures big and
small! And not just for dinner. Creatures: they aren't JUST for dinner
around here! (But they are a lot, ooo~~)

Humans are omnivores. I have no problem eating animals as long as they
are kept healthily and killed humanely. I do understand the ethical
vegan though. I live a vegan lifestyle.
