Time-Saving Foods to Keep in Your Kitchen

Expensive and processed. Majority of this isn't good for your body. If you live in rural area, most isn't available unless you are willing to drive a long distance. Block cheese stays fresh and mold free longer than grated. Cut up, prepped veggies lose nutrition much faster than whole stuff.
The framers market is a 90 mile round trip.
I much prefer quick, simple unprocessed food. I use plain frozen veggies and a few other canned products like refried beans.
This list for people with money to waste and don't care what chemicals they put in their body.

Yeah this article is pretty dumb...I thought Shine promoted healthy foods, something Chicken Wings are not even close to resembling!

my list of things is completely different, but to each his own right? I keep eggs, cheese, i freeze raisin bread and everything bagels, and keep two different kinds of cream cheese.. i also like stouffer's creamed chipped beef (i know it maybe salty!) but it comes in a boil in bag! i keep the frozen petite peas to throw in noodles or salads, or to add to my creamed chipped beef..and pancake mix that you only need water to make...rice and beans rice-a-roni and canned chili. i used to keep the canned beans like to author but now i cook beans in my baby crockpot - you can get a whole pound of dry beans for the price of one can., and last but not least peanut butter and crackers.

I think the less processed your food is the better it is for you. So much salt and preservatives in a lot of that food. I would not feed any of this to my family, with the exception of the spinach, cheese, and beans and perhaps the rice. It also reads like an advertisement. What you should have on hand is plenty of fresh and frozen organic veggies, grains, fruit, and it doesn't take much to make some healthy mac and cheese and freeze it. Also, check those labels for hydrogenated anything, and high fructose corn syrup. Absolutely stay away from those.

There's so much processed food on this list. When I saw the title, I thought it would be a list helping me stock items for preparing a meal, not a list of already prepared food. Not a lot of healthy stuff here. I'll pass.

Not just pasta but the author plugs Barilla pasta? Not just a can of beans but Eden Organic? this is just advertising. I have to have Boston Market Cinnamon Apples? This is just a matter of personal taste. The list is not a basic list for anybody, but just advertisements for certain products.

Red head you got it !Everything i thaught and you said.Thaaaanks

Talk about a list of real junk food. Contrary to what you might think take a real good look at what your eating. To start I have had no cook lasagna noodles. The lasagna had a pasty flavor from the starch in the noodles the canned chilis were a good choice but the canned red peppers i lacks real flavor, always fresh roast mine.WAY BETTER. Frozen cooked shrimp. If anything frozen raw. Better flavor not rubbery if cooked properly. Sorry. this kind of story really sets me off. With some proper planning you can have a better meal from scratch, sans the extra calories and a way better taste

I stopped buying bagged salads, a head of lettuce is much cheaper and if you use fresh veggies in other dishes then you always have the other stuff you need.
buying anything fresh that is already chopped up, is a waste of money!

Right back to needing a big freezer again... no room... I'm so stocked up now it's silly and I'm a party of one and old..

this is all well and good unless you have celiac disease, which you need to take into account since more and more of us are ending up with it

That was the STRANGEST bunch of articles I EVER saw!! Yahoo probably got paid for putting those things on a list in here so we'd see and run out and buy them....NOT!!!

Crappy list.

We won't even eat most of this stuff, not to mention it's way too expensive... Get a clue!

Why is this stuff all using the most exoensive brands? You wanna stockpile spagetti sauce leave the barilla alone. For what one bottle that costs you can get FOUR(!) cans of Hunts and it tastes better as well. For pasta get store brand there is no difference in any kind of pasts you buy.

Many people love tuna fish and buy it it those little pet food size cans. Every read the contents label? The label says tuna but that is only a part of it. Why is there soy in tuna fish? The only place I have found tuna in cans without soy is in the health food stores. The tuna/soy cans does not show how much non tuna soy you are paying for. If it is only found in health stores without soy, what is so bad about the soy??

I guess if you can't cook and don't really care about how fresh your foods are, this list would be ok. I prefer fresh foods. Really, it's not hard to peel and cook shrimp. Takes maybe 5 minutes to peel a pound and less that that to cook it. Homemade mac n cheese is 100 times better than any brand in a box. Frozen veggies are good, I also like frozen peas in lots of things - stews, soups, salads. Frozen cinnamon apples? Mushy and gross just thinking about it. Ewww.

Ya right.This list is stupid.If you accually had an emergencey to need food you need stuff that doesnt have to be refrigerated.

If you're too lazy to go to the store and buy fresh produce, meat, etc. for your family, why did you have a family? The products listed in this article are worthless unless you use them within 72 hours. Fresh products will last at least 7 days. Use your brain.

Most people should read the ingredients in most of these items first. I keep only a few of them, the few that are fit to eat, without preservatives and additives that give them all the shelf life of an embalmbed corpse!
PLEASE, people, stop putting chemicals into our food and then telling the unknowing public to eat it. It will make us sick! Read what is in those pie crusts and then you will understand. Pie crust should simply be made with plain flour, very cold unsalted butter, and ice water. Costs about $.50 to make at home in a food processor! That is all you need...REALLY!
