Explanation:
staple (Dictionary.com Unabridged (v 1.1))
1. a principal raw material or commodity grown or manufactured in a locality.
2. a principal commodity in a mercantile field; goods in steady demand or of known or recognized quality.
3. a basic or necessary item of food: She bought flour, sugar, salt, and other staples.
Assim, o melhor sentido para staples seria MANTIMENTOS.
