So our prompt today is, "Since moving abroad, my pantry looks different because… "
This is hilarious. Didn't I just go on and on ad nauseam yesterday about all the food differences? So I thought I could just show you my stuff and tell you about it.

Okay. Let's start with the photo above.
Top Shelf (L-R):
- Vanish - these are crystals you add to your wash. The pink container is for coloured clothing. There is also a white container for your whites only.
- The white container with a yellow label (sorry, I should have turned it around) is Pine Cleen wipes... think Clorox wipes. Same thing.
- Next to that is our Karcher Window Vac WV50 Plus
- Then our rice cooker
- Finally, my beloved Cajun seasoning (thanks for sending this, Tee)
Bottom Shelf (L-R):
- Easy Mac
- Kid's pasta bowl
- VitaWeat crackers in 12 grain
- Light bulbs
- Honey
- Sesame Thins w Yogurt
- Splenda/Sugar
- Toward the back I can see vegetable oil, spaghetti sauce, syrup, teriyaki sauce and A-1 sauce (bought this from USA Foods)

| More shelves |
Top Shelf (L-R):
- Nature Valley Crunchy Bars (maple flavour)
- Masterfoods American mustard
- Kraft Grated Parmesan
- Tuna
- Best Foods mayonnaise
- Viva olive oil
- Nonstick spray (like Pam)
- There's some baking stuff in the back
Bottom Shelf (L-R):
- Viva Paper towels (but for some reason, not like the ones in the states)
- Spaghetti
- Dolce Gusto coffee pods (I have one of those machines)
- Powdered sugar and brown sugar (we got ants and I had to do this with a lot of stuff)
 |
| And the final shelf - see the ant traps? LOL |
Again, left to right:
- Pepsi Max - Mr. Smith will never give up his soda. I have it delivered in bulk from Woolworth's so that we don't have to carry copious amounts home.
- Glad trash bags
- White King bleach
- Mortein bug spray (again, for the stupid ants)
- Windex
- Febreeze
- Lots of bathroom cleaning products

| Thought I would throw in the refrigerator, too. |
1st Shelf: Philly Cream Cheese, Dairy Farmers Cottage Cheese, Rekorderlig Strawberry & Lime cider, Kopparberg Raspberry cider, crumpets, water, Shape nonfat milk, fruit mix and Strongbow Sweet cider
2nd Shelf: Twiggy sticks (hot pepperoni) in butcher paper, canned ham, cookies
3rd Shelf: Leftover chicken + cheese tortellini and sauce, Freckles chocolates with 100s and 1000s, Sunblest mini loaf of bread, leftover rotisserie chicken
4th Shelf: Pepsi Max
Left Drawer: Cheeses and a meat pie
Right Drawer: Deli ham, deli chicken, oranges and grapes
So this may seem crazy, but this is what I'm hoping a lot of other bloggers do. I love being a voyeur into other people's lives. Enjoy my bad diet. LOL
Other than this, I eat out quite a lot. Or I eat lots of frozen food like plain ole pepperoni pizza or chicken stuffed with ham and cheese, mashed potatoes... I don't like much.
Hey, I recognize that Creole seasoning, my brother loves the stuff. He spent some time living in New Orleans & developed a taste for it. Man, now I want a cider!
ReplyDeleteI love taking a peek into everyone's kitchen, too!
ReplyDeleteOh, and my husband is the same about Coke Zero. His obsession is kind of legendary.
I enjoyed your tour very much. I'm glad you included your refrigerator. I thought about devoting a whole post just to our fridge, because that's changed a lot more than our pantry has after moving to Australia. Also, we are plagued by ants too, especially in the summer!
