In Kansas, officials calculated they could probably assemble two million pounds of food after an attack and that if survivors reduced consumption to an “austerity diet” of 2,000 calories, the state’s food stocks could last nearly two months. Besides the official stocks, Kansas’s wildlife could help, too: Its forests, plains, and waters contained, officials believed, 11 million “man-days” of food in rabbit meat, 10 million “man-days” of wild birds, five million “man-days” of edible fish, and—perhaps most macabre of all—nearly 20 million “man-days” of meat in residential pets. After an attack, officials also planned to confiscate household vitamins for the good of the general population and ration carefully the state’s twenty-eight-day supply of coffee.
