Tinned food

I have tins of fruit, mandarin oranges, pears and peaches and fruit cocktail.
Beans, baked, borlotti, black, kidney, butter.
Chick peas
Chopped tomatoes.
Various soup.
Sweetcorn.
And, for some reason, potatoes.
Carnation evaporated and condensed milk .
Custard.
Sardines, corned beef and spam.

Am I stocking up in case of an apocalypse!

My husband works in the Co-op, and brought most of it at the beginning of the first national lockdown.
We are gradually working our way through it.

Basically everything that's been mentioned if a war broke out we would be fine.

Red salmon, mushy peas . Sweetcorn, baked beans , tomatoes - chopped, tuna , corned beef , sardines in tomato sauce, pineapple , peaches.

Hardly any tins, just tuna ,tomatoes and sweetcorn.
I can’t remember when I last ate tinned fruit.

Tomatoes, baked beans, sardines, tuna (for DGS but he hasn't been able to visit), coconut milk, pineapple in juice (to go with gammon), 2 tins rice pudding for DH, treacle (opened)

Tomatoes, beans (various), soup, fruit, custard (OH’s), sauces, coffee, tea, jam and honey. A pasta cupboard, a cooking cupboard (flour, sugars, oil, oxo etc) and a spice drawer. No tinned meat, sometimes fish (tuna, pilchards).

I like a good stock of ingredients, though I notice that a have some black treacle which is years out of date

Liz truss is telling us that tinned fruit and veg are daisy fesh at the time of being tinned so we must start to get used to tinned fruit and custard like after the war.Mmmmm.Brexit soooo much to love.

Not bothering to put what I have as similar to everyone else.

As a child, we always had tinned evaporated milk, baked beans, red salmon, peaches, the latter brought out when we had visitors for Sunday tea, served with the evap milk and after the salmon sandwiches.

I grew up thinking that peaches were these sliced things in a sweet syrup. Didn’t realise they were a real round fresh fruit!

I hope that you all have plenty of tins of tomatoes as there apparently will be a shortage for the next couple of months due to the pandemic !
I always have those, plus baked beans, tuna, potatoes, corned beef,fruit,mushy peas !

I'm interested - that's why I started the thread!

I've been trying to remember what would have been in Mum's and Nan's pantry.

Beans, pineapple, tomato soup, sardines, chick peas, tuna, (very old rice pudding which I should probably throw out).

Really don't know why I wrote this, I am sure nobody is interested. Except it made me curious to see how many tins I had in the cupboard. Not many.

I have very few tins:

Fish (tune, mackerel)
Beans (various)
Chick peas
Mushy peas
Sweetcorn
Condensed milk (for baking)
Peaches (just bought to try as a substitute for fresh peaches in the cocktails my son loves)

Baked beans, kidney beans, chopped tomatoes, pilchards, prunes, processed and garden peas, coconut milk, tuna and custard (not sure how old that one is).

Tins - Beans of various types, tomatoes, salmon and mackerel, a couple of soups, and a couple of condensed soups for speedy sauces for us.
Sweetcorn and pineapple rings for the g'children - pineapple upside-down cake is a favourite.

I tend to bu a lot of tins as I am used to living with hungry males we generally have
tuna
red salmon
tinned pressed cod roe
spahetti bolognese
ravioli
baked beans
beans and sausages
mixed beans in chilli
kidney beans
a variety of soups
sardines and sardines in tomato sauce
tomatoes, plum and chopped
coconut milk
and dog food

Normally would have tuna and olives but DD has raided my larder

Loads of tomatoes, whole and chopped, beans and tuna and salmon. Usually have a tin of corned beef around as well.

I have tins of :- tomatoes, sweet corn, baked beans, spaghetti shapes(GC), coconut milk and a couple of soups.

Tinned tomatoes are very useful so I always have some of those. Also beans of various kinds as they don’t need pre-soaking.

I also have tinned fruit (in natural juice), chopped ham and pork, mackerel, sardines, kippers, chick peas, various beans including chilli beans, vegetarian ravioli, and dog food.
