I mean, here even FEMA recommends at least 3 months of emergency food storage for an average family. However, in case these people are really worried about a big bomb going off I don't think that any amount of food storage is going to help them!
India warns of nuclear threat to Kashmir

OFFICIALS in India-controlled Kashmir are warning people to build bomb-proof basements, store enough food and water for two weeks and be prepared for a possible nuclear war.
There was no official reason given for the sudden concern about a nuclear attack in the region, repeatedly fought over by nuclear-armed rivals India and Pakistan.
However, a series of deadly skirmishes along a cease-fire line in recent weeks has heightened tensions between the two countries.
Kashmir police published the advisory on Monday in the Greater Kashmir newspaper.
The notice advised people to build bomb shelters with toilets and to stockpile food. It also provided advice on how to survive attacks with chemical and biological weapons.
Local authorities did not answer calls for comment.
Now, I don't know about you, but this is a little scary to me! If the public in India is being warned about something like this, then maybe...just maybe, we should be just a little jumpy! You can read the story right here!
Coffee on the patio today. We'll take a chance on the weather outside for a change!

Now THAT would make me worry....
Coffee and lots of it - it's only 1 whopping degree here today. I'll bring an almond coffee ring for all!
Wow along with China and Japan squabbling over those islands. Man it gets crazier in the whole world very day!
China

Life in Africa, the Middle East and many Asian countries is really cheap, I wouldn't put anything past them. For them to state this publicly - wow, just wow.
Nuclear war - two weeks of food.... Hmmm, I guess they figure after being exposed to two weeks of radiation, they won't need that third week of supplies!
That is scary! If they did that here there would be wide spread panic. But only two weeks worth of food for a nuclear attack? What the hey!!!! Watch Doomsday Preppers here - they can show you how to prepare. Personally the people on that show are crazy people. Coffee inside sounds good 0 degrees here this morning.
Two men came into the shop yesterday and we discussed this very topic. One asked the other, "Why would I need more than a day's worth of food?"
Stupidity is universal.
Why do these people greed for owner ship all the time? so sad but yes I agree 2 weeks worth of food.don't think so.
Phyllis, I have totally forgotten about Almond rounds. I don't believe I have ever seen one here in the Sw. I will bring fresh ground coffee.
Hey Phyllis...
I can't even imagine it being that cold!
Almond ring sounds good to me, as I've never had one!
Thanks for coming by this morning.
Hey China...
Crazy seems to be the new "Normal!"
Seems to me that the whole world has lost their minds!
Thanks for the visit, buddy!
Hey Anon 7:27...
That's kinda what I was thinking. Guess they are just trying to protect a future "work force!"
Thanks for coming over!
Hey Hermit Ladee...
I don't know what any of these folks are thinking now days!
You probably hit the nail on the head with the food thing.
Hey, thanks for dropping in today!
Hey Linda...
Doesn't sound like a lot of food, does it?
I think that in a case like this, these folks are in big trouble!
Many thanks for the visit!
Hey Stephen...
Some folks just don't get it, and sadly they never will!
Thanks, buddy, for coming over today!
Hey Jo...
Unfortunately, today greed seems to drive most of the world!
Thanks, sweetie, for coming over today!
It's looking pretty dangerous out there. Better set aside another can of coffee, just in case.
Hey Sixbears...
Maybe you should make that two cans, just to be on the safe side!
Thanks for dropping in this morning!
Hey Jo - I bet you were from Joisey!
Nothing in the world tastes like a warm, almond coffee ring Mr. Hermit. You WOULD love it!
Great, now I am both worried AND hungry. Korea is rattling the nuclear saber this week as well. Insanity...talk about things gone viral.
I keep about eight cans of coffee in stock.
Here we are trying NOT to have too many stockpiled items in the pantry or fridge and then comes a doomsday warning.
Hey Syrbal...
I get that problem a lot! Some of these folks are always taking about good snacks, ya know?
Seems like a constant stream of "mine's badder than yours" going on! Sooner or later someone is going to really push the button!
Thanks for coming by today!
Hey BBC...
Probably not a bad idea!
Thanks for the visit!
Hey Beatrice...
Always seems to be a warning somewhere! Pretty darn scary!
Thanks, my friend, for coming over today!
2 weeks is what it takes fallout to decay. Now the ground zero impact will not decay that quick, but that is because heavy isotopes land near or at ground zero. The light stuff is either radiated particles or irradiated, of which neither last that long. Seriously nobody ever read all the stuff on the net about it?
And btw what is so scary for them to be playing 1980s propaganda for their sake's? We did it all the time.
