    Oh gosh, it's hard to say. Pasta, different shapes and sizes. Canned crab
    meat. Canned beans. Canned tomatoes (diced, stewed, whole and sauce,
    including tomato paste). Broths. Rice. Silly seasoning mixes, some of
    which I've had since the 1980's but can't bring myself to toss out (why
    would I need "meatloaf seasoning"? I think my mother gave me this one).
    Flour, cornmeal, sugar (okay, I'm almost out of sugar but I rarely use it),
    baking soda, baking powder, salt. And the list goes on.

    Rice - different kinds

    Jill,
    You can throw it out now. Twenty years ago it might have been ok,
    but it is almost certainly flavorless by now. Really, it's ok to toss
    it. I bet you can make a great meatloaf without it.

    LOL! I'm betting even 20 years ago it wasn't "okay". I do know I didn't
    buy it! And I do make a very good meatloaf without the addition of packaged
    seasoning 🙂

    Must be the sentimental value. Oh, and by the way, you're next in line for
    the killfile since you still haven't learned how to quote a damn thing.

    Anyone with any brain power at all would quote a portion of what they
    were replying to.
    Your reply (I know it's a reply, 'cuz you put "Re:" in the subject)
    means nothing when it's out of context like that.
