How many days of food in your house
|
Probably a week to 10 days. I used to have more but I'm not big on having or storing a lot of things, food included.

Anything between no food to two weeks worth of food. Sometimes I shop daily sometimes I do a bigger shop. It's really hard to keep a routine when my mood is so all over the place and my behavior is so impulsive. Couple that with turbulent energy levels and hyperactivity and "go with the flow" becomes less of a lifestyle choice or platitude given to those who worry too much, and instead more of a single option with no alternative options, to me

Yet I go to the market twice a week, mostly to buy fresh. (or what passes for fresh here in fly over zone) I have three teenagers. I'm going to let you guess how long the food lasts here.

IJS. Friday we bought a gallon of milk. This morning (Monday) there was barely enough left in the container for a bowl of cereal.

True story- my eldest son (the one on the high school track and cross country teams) came home from school and spotted the roast in the fridge that was going to be dinner for all 5 of us. He snacked it off, and we had to find something else for dinner protein. Now, about those bananas...about 30 bananas a week find their way into our house, (5 people) and they don't make it a whole week.When my boys were in sports in high school (and before that), they ate dinner twice- once when they got home from school, and again at regular dinner time. Lucky them. They are all at least 3" taller than me, for good reason.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
3-4 months.
I never really thought of myself as a food hoarder until this thread. I think the main reason is that I'm a fussy eater. I have 4 types of rice, 3 types of flour, 3 types of sugar, 4 or 5 types of pasta, at least 50 types of herbs and spices, at least 40 cans of different stuff, dozens of jars of biscuits and lollies, and that's just for starters.

I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.
Probably 3-4 weeks but after a week or two we'd be eating the same things over and over. I probably have a months worth in just rice, it's just cheaper to buy a lot. I still go to the store 2-3 times a week if not more for fresh foods like veggies and meats.
