Do you have a "tariff" or food shortages pantry?

A reference in a post by the Domestic Mrs. Murphy to stocking up her tariff pantry got me thinking about what may become very difficult to purchase or outrageously expensive as we try to survive not only the ever changing impulsive tariffs but also the decimation of the farm and meat industry workforce.

Of course one could answer for the latter "Everything!" but what specifically is likely to go away first due to tariffs and second due to crops not getting processed. What might we want to add to our pantries.

I used a CVS coupon before it expired to buy a small bag of granulated sugar simply because we were getting low but it also dawned on me that sugar may be affected by tariffs. However this particular product was from a Colorado coop of sugar beet farmers. Cane sugar however is mostly imported I believe.

Let's hear what you are adding to your pantry as backup whether in small or large quantities please.
