Changes: Food

Revision as of 07:47, 17 June 2021

Food/Cooking is a major survival mechanic in 7 Days to Die. Consuming food/drink grants Fullness, which restores Max Stamina. Without periodic consumption of food/drink, hunger and thirst debilitate the player, slowing movement/action speed and eventually causing death.

Early Game Tips[ | ]

Canned food and bottled water (found as loot or purchased from traders) are essential for early survival.
All other food even cooked has a 4% chance of Food Poisoning. Vitamins can negate that chance for 12 minutes.
Save Glass Jars and fill them at bodies of water.
Campfire and a Cooking Pot are needed to boil Bottled Murky Water.
Hunt and harvest animals for meat. Obtain a Bone Knife, Machete, or a Hunting Knife to harvest maximum loot (axes yield less).
Its recommended you do not eat Moldy Bread, Old Sham Sandwich, or Rotting Flesh as it has a very high chance of Food Poisoning and rather save them for future crafting recipes.
Save looted seeds to easily establish a farm later on.
Spend skill points on Living off the Land, Master Chef, and other related perks for unlocked recipes and farming abilities.

Mid to Late Game Tips[ | ]

Some Canned Food can be used in cooking recipes but most cannot. Canned Foods offer 0% Food Poisoning so consume them before raw foods.
Establish a garden near bases to farm many vegetables and other plants needed for cooking recipes.
Crops need sunlight to grow. Placing Farm Plots indoors will not allow them to grow.
Advanced recipes give the most amount of food too so favor them over basic foods.

Notes[ | ]

~~You are unable to drink any more if your Water Fullness is at the maximum.~~

~~You are unable to eat any more if your Food Fullness is at the maximum.~~

Eating/drinking more is now possible. Doing so will keep your food/water level full for longer.
