When I was 19 Ramen noodles were my staple during hard times, but now I'm a little older and my palette is a bit more refined. I have made a point of stocking up on potato, tomato, pasta, onion, garlic, cilantro, basil, dried beans, and rice; most of which I have frozen giving me the ability to make it through the next several days. There is no substitute for fresh veggies and seafood. But, I will survive with a smile and a large helping of humility. Thanks for the luck, wishes, and info.
