I do not stock food. I'm not far from a grocery store anywhere my travels.
Canned food, pop, any liquids pile on the weight really fast. And I don't like having my basement (or any other storage place) so loaded down I can't find anything.
Just my 2c.
This was a change for us with the travel we do now. Back a while ago we generally went to a lake with at best small store and "real" groceries were 25-40 miles away so you packed everything you needed for the week.
Now we are seldom more than 4 or 5 miles out side of a town and if we are we will stock up for however long we need to.
We don't feed 5 people, 2 at a time as teenagers, so the volume of food we require is much smaller too! :B We need milk at least once a week and like to try and find farmers markets to pick up fresh food also.
