What Are Your Family Food Staples?

Ever wonder what the staple foods are in another person's diet?

Here in the UK we have Gillian McKeith's TV show, "You Are What You Eat", and while I certainly don't agree with many of Gillian's concepts, I love how she delves into the eating habits of those families, laying it out for the whole nation to see.

It certainly makes interesting viewing, if nothing else.

In less dramatic fashion, Walletpop recently asked dietitians and nutritionists what food stocked their pantries and refrigerators.

Here are some of their choices:

OatmealFruits and vegetablesBeansAvocadoWild salmonNutsEggsCottage cheeseGrass-fed beefHummus

Nothing very strange or startling there perhaps, but interesting nonetheless.

Some of my weekly food staples include oatmeal, natural yogurt, lentils, spinach and coffee (oh, and a little chocolate!).

What about you -- what foods are the major staples in your diet on a daily/weekly basis?
