I never had enough to eat as a child and often went to bed hungry. This has turned me into a stock piler of food stuff. The amount of dried goods and frozen I have is embarrassing. Also cupboards full of tins, jars and packets. I get twitchy if it starts to look like we are running low so I order more. It's never wasted but I don't think we need 2 huge freezers and a floor to ceiling fridge for 3 of us lol.
