Kudzu has thick tubers with a high starch content. Each kudzu tuber weighs up to one kilogram. As long as you dig up a kudzu tuber every day, you can survive for many days without starving to death. Moreover, this tuberous root still exists in winter. So if the time comes when you need to consider outdoor survival, find kudzu vines and you will be away from death.
