Well it is that time of the year when I clean out food storage and decide what has to be eaten this month. (a.k.a. what canned goods expired last year.) I try to keep up on rotation but...
This is our front entry closet. I still have room to the left for coats and brooms/mops etc.There are only two of us and my goal is a three months supply.

| Before | |
 |
| New shelves built and food sorted |
 |
| Cans dated with sharpie (beans and meat shelf) |
 |
| Boxes dated (expiration year only) |
 |
| Cans that outdated in 2011 and will be used in next few weeks - not bad! Most manufacturers only date their canned food for 24 mos. We all know it will last longer. I will look more closely at the expiration dates on the cans in the grocery store going forward. Boxed food goes stale faster and I like to use that in date. |
This does not include my dry goods pantry or my spice cabinets.
