One of my long-term goals is to get in the habit of buying in bulk.  Currently, the only thing I bulk up on is our medicinal herbs.  After viewing my friends bulk storage here in Idaho, I can see the benefits of thinking BIG!

Here is a link to an article entitled "A Whole Foods Pantry," and it has some good ideas for healthier eating as well as bulk items. http://www.thefamilyhomestead.com/wholefoodspantry.htm
