I think she left stuff like mushrooms, lettuce, etc off the list because they are more perishable. These are things you would purchase as needed rather than keeping on hand all the time.
I always refridgerate my mustard, soy, ketchup... don't know why, just always have (I'm sure my Mom did so so do I).
Other staples:
peanut butter (my cupboard is never without)
jam (always a must)
curries (I keep a few cans or jars of prepared stuff)
baking chocolate
chocolate chips (and other spinkles and such)
Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk
basmati rice
raisins and various dried fruit
yogurt
various cheeses... always on hand
