I love your stocking it's great I hope to learn more things. A new vegan.
Glad you found my method helpful!
My husband and I are just starting our vegan journey and this video was extremely helpful!!! And the grocery list was a tremendous help too! I am so thrilled I found your channel!
Oh so fun! I’m so happy I can be of help as you two get started!
I about died seeing the moth or whatever that was fly out of your prepackaged cereal lol. I'm from California, and now reside in Ghana. I've traveled a bit before settling here, and I surprise myself at how I've been able to let some of the bug stuff go. Some, not all hahahaha!
Yeah, something about weet-bix here in malaysia...it's so common to find bugs in them! Yikes! Since then we haven't had any bugs, but my husband still ate that batch :/
I am not a cereal mixer, but it sounds like a good idea. I usually keep one box, but I’ll try two. This is a fun idea.
I don’t eat cereal very often, but when I do, I have to mix!
I’m moving soon and trying to eat up my pantry, I saved this to reference later! Thanks for sharing!
You’re welcome! Hope it comes in handy once you’re settled in your new place!
This video was so helpful! We’re moving to the states so will definitely use this video as a reference.
And, my husband and I love Digestives. We first tried them in England/Ireland.
Thanks for taking the time to put this together!
You’re so welcome! Hope the move goes smoothly!!
Your channel could be great for helping people meal prep for elderly parents, picky and need nutritious foods.
Great ideas! I definitely plan to make a picky kid meal prep food because that is my life right now :)
Just found your station and love your videos! I live in Florida and find if I freeze rice or flour overnight then seal them in containers if there are eggs in it they won't hatch then and last a long time.🐈
Oh cool! So you freeze things overnight but then store them in the pantry afterwards? I’ll need to try that!
I find that works..no bugs
I am definitely a serial mixer... I laughed so loud when you said that it just sounds funny.... My favorite is Kashi peanut butter, Chex cereal, and homemade granola the best mix ever!
Oh yesssss. That sounds like an amazing combo!
I just found you and so glad I did! This is one of the best videos I've seen in a while!! Love it!! Your cabinets look amazing!
Oh thank you! I’m so glad you enjoy my content!
So happy to see you and the family made it back home safely ❤ I was thinking about you yesterday and looking for a video update, then saw it today 🥰
Oh so fun! Yes, we’re been adjusting to life in Malaysia with two kids and no car! It’s tiring, but we’re doing well!
I'm saving this one because I love the advice! I need some tips!
That’s so great to hear! Glad it was helpful!
I’m an expat on the coast of Kenya. I get it. Bugs and humidity!! I’d eat the cereal too 😂. Unfortunately some of our things come with bugs/eggs. Even after putting things in containers you can later find them 🤢.
Yes! I hate when I don’t see any bugs but then discover there were eggs in my food that hatched! So gross! Extra protein I guess 😂
@@TheConscientiousEater would it be possible to freeze things for a bit first? 🤔That may help at least kill them. I freeze our flour after bringing it home for a few days out of habit.
I miss wheetabix so much! used to get it in Germany all the time, but havent found it in VA
It’s so good, isn’t it!?
Tip: Include a bulb of garlic & clove together with your rice to avoid bugs. Yes, they’ll appear despite storing in airtight container.
Thanks for the tips!
A Greek relative uses bay leaves to repel bugs.
Would love to learn about your two kitchens
Malaysians often have two kitchens. The wet kitchen usually has a window/vent to the outside and it's where they cook spicy/flavorful food so that the smells can escape the house!
Great video! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Such a great video, thank you
You’re so welcome! Thanks for watching!
Glad to see you made it back safe! Must feel good to be back in your own place.
I live in Montana and don't have to worry about bugs getting into my goods, but my mom said in CA she gets bugs, even in items that have been put into containers. Do you find those plastic containers keep out all the bugs?
Ah that’s so nice to not think about bugs! And sometimes I don’t see bugs in my food when I store it initially, but then see them later. Usually that means there were eggs in the food and they hatched 😬😬
@@TheConscientiousEater I always carefully check the things I use from my mom's pantry when I visit. She's been storing more and more things in the freezer because of the moths. It would be nice if you had a giant freezer to put things in, would probably kill some of the bugs, kind of like living in MT, 15 below zero this last week.
Freeze items that get bugs for 3 days. That will kill any bug eggs in those items. Hope this helps!!!
Then you could put an "F" on that container so you know you froze it and see if it ends up with bugs or not
Thanks for all the tips!
I would love to know the lowdown on the wet kitchen versus the dry kitchen- thanks!!
Basically, they have a wet kitchen where they do more of their cooking involving spices! They have vents that suck all the "spicy" air out so that the whole house doesn't smell. Not sure why they use the words wet and dry??
cereal mixer over here 😃
Yesssssss. You feel me!
I noticed you have hoison sauce. I thought that was a fish sauce. Have you found a vegan one? We have fish allergies so I would be interested in an alternative.
It's not a fish sauce! I believe more are vegan. You can just check the label to double check as every brand is different.
Where did you get your pretty blue dress?? Or what’s the brand? Thanks 😊
I think it was old navy. It’s hard to find clothes that fit here but we had an old navy for a while and that was nice for all of us Americans ☺️
Have you ever tried date syrup or is it not available where you are? I’ve always been wanting to try it since some say it’s a good replacer for pancake syrup or honey but for now I enjoy maple syrup 😋
I love it but can't always find it!
Can you link those large plastic containers ??
Yes! I found similar ones on Amazon that I’ll add to the description box! That’s for thinking of that!
Thank you for the video .
I bought a container of zaartar spice, what do I put it on / how should I use it ?
I’m still figuring that out as well! We love mixing it with a little oil and spearing it in flat bread before baking! I need to look up more ways to use it though!
I suggest adding it on top of hummus (try small amounts and work up to what tastes good). We use different spice mixes to 'change it up' regularly
cereal mixer 😉
Woot woot!!
Check out bodyweight warrior.
Same vibe 😋😘😍
I will! Thanks so much!
Just curious, why did you originally choose to live in Malaysia?
Malaysia is a hidden gem! We were living in China but wanted a change. We went to visit friends in Malaysia and fell in love. Malaysia has amazing Southeast Asian culture and diversity, it's cheap, the people are super friendly, everyone speaks English and it's really western/modern so it's easy to move to as foreigners. We love it!
This is certainly not all helthy OR whole foods...
Nope. Don't think I said it would be! Our pantry items are sometimes foods or used a lot for baking recipes for my blog which caters towards people just starting out on a plant based diet.
Hi I'm a subscriber are in America now or are you a missionary
We are Americans living in Malaysia! We love living in Asia and plan to raise our kids over here so we can homeschool and travel a lot :)
Be sure to download my Plant-Based Pantry Shopping List (theconscientiouseater.com/pantry-shopping-list-pdf/). And tell me...are you a cereal mixer??
Just an fyi honey isn’t vegan!!!
Yes! I’m aware! I probably should have made that more clear in the video though!
Really? Why?
I was looking for the one person to make a stink about that 😂 there are different types of vegans and some consume honey... it's totally okay.
@@TheConscientiousEater I noticed you have access to British and Australian products. You could try golden syrup or treacle as alternatives to honey. Fair warning, they may be a bit of an acquired taste. Those of us that grew up with it don't notice.
This was fantastic!! I wish I'd had this video when I went plant-based over two years ago. Now I have pretty much what you have in your pantry minus the nuts because my partner has fatal food allergy to nuts and seeds so I can't have them in the house. He's allergic to legumes too but isn't affected by the smell of those (thank goodness!LOL I need my beans!) I'm in Canada and don't have bug problems but my pantry is actually my cold room under the front stairs and it feels moist in there so I keep everything in air-tight containers like you do and no problems. I've been binge-watching your videos and I love them all 🤗 You 're awesome and so likeable!🥰
So glad you found this video helpful! Thanks for sharing more of your story as well!
I just found your channel and I am so grateful for this video as I'm a brand new plant based eater and was looking for some food inspiration. 😊 Weird habit : I like to go through the comments and read most of them of they're not too many, I've gotten a few helpful tips this way in the past. And I must say, I love the fact that you respond to EVERY SINGLE COMMENT. Super rare. I love that! New subbie here. Blessings to you and yours 💐💕 Side note : why are your teeth so perfect!?
Hi! Welcome! I’m glad you found me and are enjoying my content! Yep. I try to respond to everyone eventually. It’s fun to connect with people who watch my videos!
Oh, and 5 years of braces, expanders, implants etc. is how my teeth are finally decent. For some reason three of my adult teeth never came in so it was quite a long season. Let’s just say high school wasn’t my best season ☺️
Love your organized approach (just like I love mine in my life). HEHE
Organization keeps me sane!
Yes! My grandma calls it cereal cocktail lol mix them all
Ah, I'm going to call it that now too!
Oh and I love your label system, I always tape the directions for some of my rices to my jars but this is a great idea to use a dry erase marker.
The dry erase marker rubs off sometimes so there are pros and cons to both!
Love your organized pantry! Wish I had one fourth the amount of cabinets you have!
I really have so much space! I definitely need to not take it for granted!
Nice video! I’m interested to know more about your life as an American woman in Southeast Asia. What is it like to live in Malaysia? Is it a very conservative country? Is western dress tolerated, for example?
That’d be a great video! I should film a day in the life. Malaysia is an amazing country that is super friendly and diverse. We love it here and it’d be fun to show more of the culture!
@@TheConscientiousEater That would be great!
I would love that too! And maybe what brought you there.
Hey you look familiar. Glade I'm watching
Maybe you've randomly watched one of my other videos:) Either way, thanks for being here!
Thank you for the video. Love the organization. Question..are the dry erase markers non-toxic?
You're welcome! And...I don't know!
nice ASMR voice, very calm and soft
(give me a break from nagging voice of my boss ehr)
Thank you :)
I wanted to complement her voice as well :) so soothing :)
Luv the market tip !
Please explain/show the wet vs. dry kitchen!
Basically, they have a wet kitchen where they do more of their cooking involving spices! They have vents that suck all the "spicy" air out so that the whole house doesn't smell. Not sure why they use the words wet and dry??
You can just add salt to the no salt one just sprinkle little on top of toast
Yes! We ended up doing that!
Poor baby, reminds me of my grandson, so cute.
He still falls so much! Poor guy!
You have the prettiest apartment there. 🌺
It really is great! Malaysia is a hidden gem!
I love your channel so much already
Oh thank you! Glad you’re here!
@@TheConscientiousEater I am about to watch all your videos :D
Did you ever had a problem with Nutritiinal yeast?Mine got bugs on the outside of the cap,it waa so small you could hardly see it moved.I only realised that it was moving after the second time that I used it after just wiping the cap🤢
I haven’t yet! But I’m sure that could happen easily! I guess every country has its own specific issues and foods that get affected more than others!
Why 2 kitchens? What is the purpose of that ?
They call one the wet kitchen and it often has a vent to the outside. Usually people cook their more flavorful, spicy meals in the wet kitchen so the smells don't stink up the house!
Do you have a video about why you live in Malaysia?
I don't! In short, my husband and I love Asia and traveling and we are blessed to work online so we can live and work anywhere. I knew nothing about Malaysia until we visited one year and we quickly fell in love. It's a really easy country for expats to live in :)
Serial mixer 😝♥️
Yesssssss
