You know, that said I'd wonder how safe some of the wildlife in parts of real-world Russia are for eating, considering the number of contaminated sites and improperly disposed radioactive waste lingering about...
As well as industrial waste and pollution, etc. Ecocide in the USSR by Murray Feshback is a really disturbing read (and can be had used on Amazon for $0.01 + shipping) about conditions in that country that I wish I'd read before I last ran a T2K campaign, as what it has to say about conditions in the USSR would also apply to conditions in the Warsaw Pact nations. Given the choice between camping overnight in a two year old nuclear strike crater or in an Eastern European industrial site, you'd probably be better off in the crater.
