You're right, food is less than the generator, but we've got one and it will be used if needed. If not, it's not taking up too much space in the garage. Had one when we did lots of RVing and just got used to having one. Grew up with hurricanes, lived as an adult with earthquakes. Maybe it just makes me feel a bit more secure to have the power source....and if it's hot, I can at least run a fan. Fingers crossed that this year the hurricane predictors are wrong!
