re: Society breaks down and you have to make it in a subsistence agriculture situation

To catch and kill will need to do it often with no refrigeration/freezing. More people than you think can kill and catch. And they will have to do it daily.

There's ways other than freezing/refrigerating to preserve food. How the frick do you think people survived on long expeditions or on ships? You can salt meat, make jerky, can it, smoke it.

I think you're overestimating the number of people that could survive without modern conveniences such as grocery stores, restaurants, and fast food. Most people likely couldn't bait a hook, much less catch a fish.

Go walk around in Walmart or Whole Foods or darn near any grocery store and count how many people could likely survive by their own means.
