Mobile smoothie cart? Anyone ever tried the concept?

I am thinking of starting a food cart business and was wondering about the possibility of selling smoothies and shakes. One of my main concerns is how to power a juicer and/or blender on a mobile street cart. Are portable battery power packs a good option? Anyone have experience with this type of cart or have any suggestions? thanks

Sam's has one of those battery powered margarita-ville machines in for Christmas. I seem to recall a gasoline powered one that all the RVers were talking about. I think it can be bought thru places like Cabala's. It looked like it belonged on my John Deere weed whacker! Seems to me it was kinda loud.

I use a small Yamaha generator, the ES2000 is the model number. It is super quiet, weighs 44 lbs and will run up to 14 hours on less than a gallon of gas. It will run a blender/smoothie machine with ease and more.

I have a 6x10 enclosed trailer. There is very little exhaust, in fact, I rarely even notice it running and have never smelt any fumes as it is one of those low emission units. You can stand right over it and have a normal conversation, it is whisper quiet.
