Hey there.<br><br>I decided to go with canned food. I don't want to cook on the patio, because about a half dozen apartments and everyone between the swimming pool and entrance can see me on the balcony. While I like to share under normal circumstances, I still have my roommate to take care of, which essentially cuts my supply in half, and feed one neighbor, and you gotta feed 'em all.<br><br>How would I determine if electricity is safe if no one is in the leasing office to call an electrictian? Should I assume unsafe for the first 72 hours?<br><br>I plan to have about 20 days of canned stuff (chili, soup, diced veggies and corn) and 10 days of survival rations. Is that a decent 30-day package? I'll probably go the first 2 days living off my refrigerated foods that don't need cooking (vegetables, cold cuts) because it'll spoil faster.
