I cleared the local shop out of Turkish macaroni yesterday. Admittedly, only four bags, and they were doing them at two for £1.50. (I like Turkish macaroni - it cooks quickly as well, which is handy if there's power interruptions.) I also broke my rule on the buying smaller bags in the case of rice, and got a 2kg bag as it came with a Useful Tin.
I'm doing smaller bags since it's just me and G, and it means I'm not trying to cope with a sack of something. They're also more useful for donating to a food bank if everything turns out to be okay.
But pretty much I'm doing a snow plan, rather than anything major, on the grounds that I can just get the hell out of the country pretty easily. So a lot of what I'm stocking is also the stuff that you cook to warm up in snowy weather.
Stock cubes (or Marigold buillon) and I'm going to have some dried veg. If it all goes tits up, food will be fairly monotonous, but we'll be fed.
