Besides Typical Foods, Your Top 5 Staples?

My top five are:
1. Garlic powder. I use this on so many of my meals lol.
2. Extra virgin organic olive oil. I use this for all my cooking needs.
3. Mint tea bags. I make a mint iced tea that I drink throughout the day. Its' the most thirst quenching and refreshing drink I've had.
4. Splenda or Equal. Because I can't live without sugar, so I might as well use the no cal version.
5. Apple cider vinegar. I'm one of those people who have experienced great benefits from this, so I always keep a bottle around.

What are your top five non "food" staples?
