What silly food items do you realise you’ve run out of?

[FlamingoAndJohn]

Now that it’s tricky to get stuff from shops etc what silly little things do you realise you’ve run out of.
I’ve run out of peppercorns.
No one is going to die, I know it’s not important but it’s annoying.

What silly thing are you short of?

Hot cross buns.

Bisto gravy granules!

Marmite and gluten free pasta.

Mayo. Which is a true tragedy for me because I eat it with everything like a child!!!

Tomato puree

Tomato puree.

Lemons 🍋 for my & T! Absolute disaster 😱. Had to resort to using lemon juice, not the same at all, but we all have to make sacrifices in this emergency situation, so I’m being a brave soldier...

Not run out but hopeless limited. Squash!!

Ds uses it to take medicine with, will actually taste horrible just water. Hes also required to drink loads. He doesnt do fizzy. He will get three 3 a week at home easily, which is the restriction... if we miss a internet delivery well be out very quickly.

I stocked most other things just didnt even think of that

Peppercorns for me too.

Sweet chilli sauce. In the grand scheme of things, it's hardly the end of the world and I imagine that my local Asda probably still has plenty. But I never actually realised until now just how much I love sweet chilli sauce on my dinner.

@Redcrayons
Get down marks and Spencer's! They always have enough stock to see them through till Xmas!

Sugar free vimto, I dont drink tea or coffee and am diabetic so cant drink the full sugar version

You can buy jars of preserved lemon s for g&t!

I need ginger and lemon juice and don't have any

@itwasalovelydreamwhileitlasted I don’t go to the supermarket on a normal Saturday, I’m definitely not going today when all the lunatics are out. I only want normal ones, I don’t want fancy salted caramel, rhubarb or whatever unholy stuff they chuck in there.

@Fatted in Aldi yesterday sweet chilli sauce was only thing fully stocked on the sauce shelves —cos it’s horrible— fear not!

Worcester sauce 😭 I use a bit in almost everything I cook

Paprika so minor and pathetic but so inconvenient!

Also hot cross buns Tesco ones are my favourite

Anchovies!

I cut up lemons and put them in the freezer for gin and tonic.

Peppercorns here, too. And garam masala. Thankfully found both in tesco metro when I went in for bread, yesterday.

I can’t get my compote or frozen pastries.
That’s 3 online orders they have now been missing from

Golden syrup - having to have honey on pancakes!

If you’re at home, you can bake hot cross buns!!

Lloyd Gs tomato and garlic sauce. I usually have one or two in the cupboard, but not just now.
No chance of getting that now, it’s up there with bum paper in the most wanted list.
