You get 18 appliance slots for free between every few levels (I think until Level 73) then it is 49 gems per extra slot or to get a new slot earlier.
I am level 75 and always have plenty of food. When it was 4th of July week, I had to keep deleting food because I wanted the festive food spread out (and not all go to 1 counter) like the Celebration Trifle and burgers/dogs ;-)
If you’re stock piling food you’re better off stock piling roast chicken and clearing every other dish from your counters. As most people would know not every dish earns the same amount of coins per serving. Roast chicken earns 8 coins per serving which is the highest you can earn from a dish whereas the majority of dishes will only earn 4 coins. You double your profit! I personally clear any dishes that only earn 1,2 or 3 coins per serving. It takes every customer 30 seconds to finish a meal regardless of what dish it is so I only allow higher earning dishes on my counters. My goal is to stock pile roast chicken only but continue to cook other recipes to earn the gems but clear them as I make them. I hope this helps.
Wow. Never knew this. Thanks!

Thanks, I had actually just gone through the charts about a month ago to decide what to stock up on next, and had settled on roast chicken!
