Food and Supply Storage. Indicate unambiguous location.

For cold items, check the fridge.

Cabinet and Shelf Mapping

Cabinet positions are upper, lower; and position counting from left or right OR under sink.

Shelf positions (where shelves available) are given in

  • shelf position counting from bottom
  • shelf side (left, center, right)
  • shelf depth (back, behind, forward, front)

Examples:

  • “Back of the third shelf, upper second left cabinet”
  • “Bottom right cabinet, in front”
  • “Under the sink, toward the front second shelf”

Snacks

Chips, cookies, snack cakes and other junk food.

Dinners

Mac & Cheese, Hamburger Helper, bowl/packet ramen, M.R.E.'s and the like.

Comestibles

Spreads, breakfast cereals, etc.

Beverages

Stock items; unopened bottles and cans not kept cold. All beverages, once opened, go to the fridge or will be disposed of before closing up.

Baking ingredients

Cooking ingredients

Spices

High-use items like salt and pepper can be left on the counter.

Condiments (non-refrigerated)

  • Please refrigerate opened ketchup, mustard, and bottled sauces.
  • Please refrigerate Dave's Hot Chicken sauces.

These are sealed and unopened condiments, spare fast food packet sauces/condiments, as well as things like szechuan chili crisp, olive oil, and other condiments or dressings where refrigeration-after-opening probably isn't required.

We will dispose of (use all, or dump) all fast food packet sauces on January 1 of each year, to keep them fresh and prevent out-of-date or spoiled sauces from being used. January may be relatively sauceless, but this is the price to pay for food safety.

Disposable utensils

Disposable plates, bowls, cups

Other kitchen cabinets

These are where we keep dishes.

Article TODOs:

  • Map to the realities of the space. I'm working from memory here.
  • Indicate what needs regular replenishment, versus “nice-to-haves” to be occasionally or provisionally acquired as needed.
