I grew up with food insecurity being a regular thing. Even though my wife and I are, fortunately, both doing reasonably well professionally and have no trouble affording or obtaining groceries, my wife has been very kind about my ingrained need to make sure our well-stocked pantry still contains the big packs of dried rice and dried beans I’ve been conditioned to always have on hand in case things get That Bad again.
