This past we tackled the Food Storage Areas: Pantry, Spices, etc
I had ironically just gone through my pantry and tossed out expired food AND food that had MSG and Corn Fructose Syrup and Hydrogenated Oils. That pretty much wiped out my whole pantry! We’ve been trying to eat “clean”. I especially wanted to remove these horrible ingredients from my home. It was sad to let go of some favorite snacks like Cheetos-believe it or not Cheetos have MSG.
ANYWAY, I decided to focus on spices.
All these spices that were expired! A lot of these were spices I buy for a specific recipe. So the ones with the green lids expired in 2005! I have no idea how they made it to our new house (2011). I should have tossed them then.
Here is my shelf now (pretty bare). I do have to replace some, though, like Parsley Flakes and Allspice.
I have a card on the door saying what each row contains so I am not searching:
I have to update my card now since i got rid of so much.
So not too much but, it was nice.
Oh, and I did clear my baking area:
And put all my cookie cutters in a scrapbook box! Not including Christmas of course.
