It's a tall order to pull this lot out of food storage. (6)
I believe the answer is:
larder
This clue could be a double definition.
'it's a tall order to pull this lot' is the first definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?
'food storage' is the second definition.

'out of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for larder that I've seen before include "Small room for storing food" , "Room or cupboard for food storage" , "Food store" , "Cool store" , "Cupboard or small room for food" .)
