Better still, you can easily bake bread. White flour lasts for years if stored well, dry yeast lasts as long. Add some rye, oats, muesli, nuts and/or other random kitchen finds to create something akin to whole-grain bread. Add boiled grits or ground boiled pasta to create a more moist loaf. I've been baking my own bread since high school (i.e. for about 40 years) and see no reason to stop doing so. It also gives you something to do while waiting out the quarantine...

Yes. Great bread recipe linked below. You may never go back to store bought. It has non-laborious kneading, you just leave it overnight.
