The recent thread on dirty leeks made me think about just how many
people have no clu' where food really comes from.

In the event of a nuclear holocaust, what is the estimated percentage of
humans that could even begin to survive? How many can consider
harvesting a wild plant for food? How many people can dress out a fresh
animal for food?

Frogs? Fish? Rabbits? Deer? Etc.?

How many people really know where food comes from (other than grossery
stores) so could survive off of the land?

How many people can hunt and gather like our ancestors did for thousands
of years?

This would make a really cool survey. :-)

I'd guestimate less than 25%, at least in American cities.
I've personally known humans that could not change a light bulb, plunge
a toilet, or roast a ham steak. (I kid you not!)

Dad is watching me type this and laughing, saying that I'm being
generous in my estimate...
