Three Pantry Items You Would Replace Immediately

If your cupboards vanished today, which 3 shelf-stable items would you replace first? For me, it would be olive oil, dried pasta, and black pepper. (And I always have Parmesan in the fridge)

Yes, pasta would be a big one, also soups, salt.

Olive oil and pasta for sure, salt instead of black pepper, pasta cooked without salt tastes horrible.

Those are great choices. I guess I would say salt, dried pasta (preferably linguine), and olive oil.

Well milk is the one parishable we can't do without. But, I'd have to say pasta and anything soft for George. He has meds he can't swollow.

Yours are good choices. I would say pasta, salt, olive oil ....I would want ground black pepper but would need the salt more to cook the pasta
