We are what we eat...

With 3 boys (soon to be 4) and the thought of having 4 teenage boys - I often imagine how my shopping will change over the years.  I wonder if I'd laugh to see the things that the boys "use to eat" these day and wondering if they'd EVER eat a full meal.  So, just to humor me in the future - here's what we are this summer:

Typical STAPLE foods in our refrigerator/pantry:
2 gallons of 1% milk
1 gallon of whole milk (for Danny)
some yogurt
tub of sour cream
1 loaf of white sandwich bread (sometimes wheat for me)
eggs (a carton will last us a month)
tortilla chips
occasionally wheat-thins for me
a new fav - V8 fusion, Strawberry/Banana (yum)
OJ
cheddar cheese
Pepper Jack Cheese (Hunter's fav)
tortillas
bananas
Multi-Grain Cheerios
Other fav cereals: Rice Krispees, Cinnamon Toast Crunch & Lucky Charms
"Cheesey Shells" Alfredo Pasta Roni (Cole's fav)
Mac-N-Cheese (Kraft only)
turkey hotdogs
Tomatoes
Green/Red Peppers
Ramen Noodles
beans: refried and black - always stocked!
and of course, frozen burritos

And I forgot to mention one more thing about Danny on his b-day post - he LOVES mustard since the April Fool's prank by his parents.  He'll even scoop it up by the spoonful if we're not watching.  He often requests mustard with ANYTHING...  tee-hee-hee.

We'll have to try the V8 fusion. Greg's on a new V8 kick and got the veggie stuff, and yuck! I can barely force it down.

I was thinking about this at Sunday dinner. I made 1 pound pkg of chicken breast tenders for dinner (about 10 pieces total) and 6 cobs of corn. It was barely enough food. Barely. These boys are going to eat us all out of house and wallet.
