Do You Keep A Well Stocked Pantry?

We just went through another ice storm.  This one was not as severe, in our area, as the one we had two years ago, but it caused a major panic in the days leading up to it, none the less.  As a produce manager, I see the wild eyed customers, litterally freak out.  I witness them just grab anyhting that is edible and throw it into their cart, worrying about the cost later.  I am thankful that we keep a well stocked pantry in our home and that we have solar power and we use our heads when it comes to these things.  I do believe that most people do not keep a pantry as I see the same people in the store, day after day (small town).  A pantry used to be common and a given in any home, I don't think that is the case any longer.  Maybe folks just don't know what to do, well I found a good place to start for tips on keeping a well stocked pantry.  Use the link, it is a quick read.  I will, probably, re-visit this topic in the near future in more detail.  Do you know anyone that could use some advice in this matter?

I guess we stay stocked better than most folks, but this year, we've met so many people in need that we keep depleting our stock. Times are tough out there.
