The only point I would have to differ on is the cooking oils and mainly because cooking oils (especially vegetable/seed oils) go rancid relatively quickly.
Bacon grease is good to save in that when it's congealed it becomes like cheese in that if the top goes rancid you can scrape the bad part and below it is good. Health-wise, beef tallow would be superior but similar.
The only other advice to add would be to put grains and flour in the freezer for a couple of months before vacuum sealing, which would kill any eggs that might be in the bag.
Keep olive oil in the dark, and it will last through this episode. I just started seeing bacon grease for sale in the local grocery store several weeks ago right next to the lard. It seems to be cheaper than olive oil.
