I'm trying to think of my most frequent offenders.

Rosemary is a big one. I have plants all around my porch and yet I still retain dried leaves and go through them like a junkie goes through his parent's jewelry for rock.

I cook a lot of Indian fare so I inevitably pop whole spices. Cumin, Coriander, Mustard seed. These have a rather high turnover.

I bake bread a lot and cycle out instant yeast and bread flour quite often.

All sorts of stocks. I try to keep 4 parts chicken, 2 parts veggie and one part beef on hand at all times for soup, risotto, etc. For point of reference, chicken I keep a gallon on hand as a rule. I don't keep seafood stock on hand because I generally only use that in a few things, and I can always just throw a live lobster at my wife the night before I want to make anything with seafood stock. She'll pick the shell clean and then I get to take the remains, add mirepoix and sachet, and let that ride for a while.

Sesame & poppy seeds get on my bread a lot.

Garum and/or anchovies get used frequently due to my penchant for italian food.

I keep a stand full of yellow & red onions, shallots, leeks, and garlic. Very high turnover rate.
