They are starving and eating paper but somehow they kept tobacco plants and all the mechanisms for drying and curing them, which would have taken enough resources to keep hundreds of people alive!?!?!

He was kept alive by his steady diet of 200 cigarettes per day.

A guy like Cottle buys cigarettes for a decade in advance.
Hell, even Col. Tigh was smoking rollies by the end of the series. Cottle was set for life.
