I went through the dry mixes and binned a half dozen or so that had either expired or were opened and half-used sometime in the past... two years? Eesh.

The lesson was learned: I only bought ONE replacement rice seasoning during today's grocery run. It's for trail food, and if that doesn't use up one packet, then they aren't worth getting again.

It's part of the new system: Each week, a couple of older/half-used items get separated out to be used for hiking food, meal planning, ingredients, whatever happens to be going on. Eventually the old stock gets cleared out, and there's a sane use:replace ratio going on.

Based on the pantry-clearing soda breads, the method is working. The sugar/nut/dried fruits shelf is half-empty now and today I could reorganize enough that there's floor space in there. It's half as crowded as it was a month ago.
