I'd like to compare notes. This tells us important things about you! Razz

Tell you what's cluttering up mine these days - jars & bottles. Lots & lots of jars & bottles!
Checking & listing now:
Green curry paste, red curry paste, yellow curry paste, Massaman curry paste, tandoori paste, green chilli sauce, sambal oeleck ..
Light soy, dark soy, oyster sauce, fish sauce, black bean sauce, plum sauce, sweet chilli sauce, tamarind paste, etc, etc, etc...
French mustard, English mustard ..
Hot pepper spread, fruit chutney, sun dried tomatoes,
Big jar of beetroot, big jar of middle eastern pickled turnips (yum!) ...
Yackandah raspberry jam (yum!), Vegemite, honey, yoghurt, sour cream, double cream, peanut butter, container of butter ....

Oh god & more I'm not even going to mention.

And this is before I get onto the real food, the cheeses, the (cramped) vegetable crisper, the freezer!

No wonder there's no room to put anything in there! How did this happen? Confused

OK, that's my fridge.

I dare you to tell me what's cluttering up yours!

Bare? Really, Izzie?

I'm so impressed. The ability of some people not to create clutter (in fridges, pantries, on, under, above & around bookshelves, etc ..) is a gift, I reckon!

So .. um.. when you feel like cooking .....?

Oh...mine is packed. Salad dressings. All kinds. Light Yogurt every flavor imaginable. 2 Gallons of milk (3 boys- will have to go back again Wednesday) cantalope, watermelon, grapes...all cut up, and ready to eat in tupperware. Big pitcher of sweet tea, Gogurt, diet Dr Pepper, cheese drawer packed with provolone, monterey jack and deli meats. Huge water jug with a spigot. Crispers also full to capacity. My neighbor just brought us late crop of tomatoes and cucumbers and I have 3 heads of romaine and bib lettuce and a bag of onions.

there are also some mystert tupperware that have leftovers probably turned experiments. ew

Very healthy clutter, I've gotta say.

A large-ish (for me) bag of baby spinach leaves

@dadpad,

Why? To be on the safe side, I guess, dadpad. It takes me AGES to get through a small jar. I lose track of when I bought it. So I feel better about it being in there & not in a cupboard.
Yackandandah raspberry jam I am very, very seriously addicted to! One of the great little pleasures in life. Never without a jar! Yum! Very Happy

So what's in your fridge, dadpad? Exotic stuff, I betcha!

@msolga,

Those are good veggies Msolga...I am a salad and soup fanatic. I also have 3 cartons of half used sour cream for some reason. I am scared to open them.

The schools are very strict on healthy lunches...I am not a healthy eater by nature...I LOVE junk food...but it sticks to me like white on rice...We do have chips and Little Debbies in the pantry.

@msolga,

OH MY - Little Debbie's are these little snack cakes...all kinds. They have these swiss chocolate rolls...cake with creme rolled in them and dipped in chocolate. And these oatmeal cream pies...and peanut butter bars dipped in chocolate. They are what I have to resist. They are so good.
