I was just living in a teeny-tiny apartment with a roommate in grad school and this was my staple shopping list:
Coffee
Creamer - real dairy creamer
Ground beef - split into ~roughly~ 4-5 ounce servings and put in little sandwich ziplock bags and frozen.
Spicy ground sausage - treated the same as the beef
Chicken breast strips - two or three per ziplock bag frozen
Bell peppers
Asparagus
Garlic
Tomatoes
Cucumbers
Zuchinni/Yellow Squash
Bananas
Apples
Onions
Potatoes
Eggs --- lots
Crystal Light - or similar drink mix to put in my water
Tea - Earl Grey and Mint
Pasta
Tomato sauce
Popcorn
Olive Oil
Cheese --- I would buy cheese that was on sale a lot. I love brie and they would put those little rounds on manager's special sometimes so I'd get it for like $3. Otherwise I'd get blocks of hard cheddar cheese.
Bread

I was asked the other day what "natural" foods were in my pantry. I carefully omitted any that might be considered unnatural or manufactured. I've been thinking about that list so to be fair, here's the manufactured list.
Peanut butter, jam (for hubby) rice-a-roni (hubby's a fan), one Kraft dinner, Mio variants, Hamburger Helper (for those days I just...can't), Miso soup, cup-a-soup, canned stewed tomatoes, tomato paste, canned soups (low-sodium), chicken broth, cookies (for hubby) beef broth, energy bars, Cheerios, Dragon's Blend cereal, Corn Flakes, brown sugar blend, smallest -available-bag-of-white-sugar-when-nothing-else-will-do, garlic cloves, and Becel Canola oil for frying.
In the fridge my staples are eggs (always!), milk (1%), Becel margarine, egg white in a carton, yogurt, cottage cheese, lemon juice, lime juice, ginger, soy sauce, hot sauce, onion, garlic ham sausage, and tofu. Other fruits and veggies change from week to week depending on what is in season.
My freezer has my light old cheddar pre-portioned, various meats, edamame with other frozen vegetables, and my bread.
