Here in Hawaii, I stock up twice a year and rotate the canned goods in preparation for Hurricane Season. Always a store of assorted batteries for flashlights, tabletop stove gas cannisters, propane tanks for the outdoor grill, charcoal (in case the length of power outage would be weeks long). We've had a few Hurricanes in the past that caused rolling blackouts for the State, tsunami alerts, earthquakes that rocked the island for a half day worth of power outages, etc. So it's always a very good idea to keep things stocked for these unexpected turn of events.

Enjoy reading all the comments!I am wondering if there will be any food if the sun doesn't hurry up and SHINE!I need to go out and plant more of my garden,but it's drizzling again today.We usually keep stocked up on meat and fruits and veggies that I can or freeze.Amazing how much I still buy at the grocery.

Be careful with grain products. (flour, cornmeal, cereal, noodles) I bought some raisins from the local drug store and they had weevils in the box. Dumped it into the garbage can. Must have been some adults in it as now I have little silver moths and have to keep all grain products in airtight containers and freezer to keep the little buggers out. Drug store said they got them from the distribution warehouse and there was nothing they could do but refund the $2 for the raisins. Evidently the bugs were free!
