Imagine if it were no longer available tomorrow: what food item are you hoarding?

In other words... what food couldn't you live without?

I actually had to think about this, but if I knew I would never be able to get it again I would 100% be stockpiling grated Parmesan cheese. Or reduced sugar ketchup... or cottage cheese. It's a hard question! Makes you think about the foods we take for granted.

    Seafood, sadly I'd have to eat it all in a very small window of time.

    They changed the recipe on the Fiber One brownies and snack cakes and completely ruined them.

    I hit Amazon and all my local retailers looking for the old packaging and now have approx 220 Fiber One brownies in my spare bathroom :lol: I'm hoping they come to their senses and change them back in the next year!

    Every once and awhile I don't have either oatmeal or overnight oats for breakfast, and I always end up missing it, so that would probably be the worst one.

    I'm not really picky, so I could pretty easily roll with the punches if one major thing were no longer available. At least off the top of my head :smile:

    I did this when Twinning changed the formula of Earl Grey. I was able to get a 2 year's supply of regular, but not decaf.

    My favourite cereal is already not available where I live (which is bad but also good since I'd eat it all the time). I'd have to say wine which we already hoard. I mean I could learn to make my own but meh it wouldn't be as good as the real good stuff.

    Cheese. I cannot live without cheese.

    A world without wine or cheese would be so sad :cry:

    Must start stockpiling NOW!

    These four items right here are my highest priority staples, along with a few other things. I would load up several moving trucks if they were going to be discontinued. I already stock up a deep freezer as each one goes on sale. 😁

    You just reminded that I would stockpile Cocoa Pebbles. I may have to start this weekend.

    all the Morningstar stuff I like...spicy black bean burger especially...sausage, corn dogs, all of it except the chick'n whatever because I don't like that.

    Also, Target's natural creamy peanut butter...mainly because it's so cheap (and tastes good). For some reason in the past year at my local store it went from $4-ish, almost $5 to $2.79 for a large jar and I'm not mad.

    I'm not drinking currently but I sorta wish I'd hoarded the Shock Top Twisted Pretzel beer because it was fantastic in a horrible guilty pleasure way. RIP

    Sticky white rice. Gotta have my Kokuho Rose. I buy it in 20 pound bags.

    Lindor Chocolates. I would actually go bankrupt buying those if they just stopped making them.
