a while back we bought 5KG of Basmati rice in Lidl for £4.99, OH says we only use a few ounces at a time so it will last us about 12 months!

Rice and Pasta are my basics. I'm trying to also include potatoes, which are easy enough because we use it and grains, which are harder because we don't use them as much.
You can buy enough rice and pasta to keep you alive for a while. Only thing is it requires water. Don't forget that.

porrage is an amazing food, can be made into a form of bread. Saw it in lots of finnish and swedish shops. will keep the body warm, and fill you up easy enough. just remember the sugar

dont bother with the bbe date. its a lot of crap. they used to have them for years without dates on them. Put them in an air tight jar (to keep out the damp) and they will keep as long as 30 years
