Some food can be produced at the ranch. Let the suitable Pal with farming proficiency graze and automatically produce food. The produced food will be transported by Pals with transporting proficiency to nearby chests or coolers.

Cooking Food Ingredients

Cooking Ingredients/Recommended Reason
 Jam-filled Bun
Jam-filled Bun
Flour Flour×1
 Red Berry Red Berry ×2A dish that can be cooked with just wheat and berries. It doesn't require any special skills, so it's recommended for early to mid-game.
 Pancake
Pancake
Flour Flour×1
Milk Milk×1A dish that can be cooked with Wheat Plantation and Mozzarina only. It reduces the decrease in SAN value, so it's recommended as feed for the base.

Cooked food not only restores hunger value, but also provides buffs to work speed and attack power. Some food also reduces the decrease in SAN, so cook and put them in the feed box.

Uses of Food

Main Uses of Food
It is recommended to use the feed bag
Automatically feeds the Player or Pal
Put it in the feed box
Store it in a cooler

Giving to the Player or Pal

Food Usage

Give food to the Player or Pal. The hunger level of the Player or Pal decreases over time. Right-click on the food item in the Inventory to give it to the Player or Pal.

Putting food in the feed bag saves you the trouble of manually feeding your Pal. It automatically feeds your Pal even during battles when your hands are busy, so it is recommended to use feed bag items.

Putting it in the feed box

Food that reduces SAN decrease

The Pal placed at the base will eat the items in the feed box. Therefore, it is recommended to put dishes that prevent SAN decrease.

How to Get a Feed Box

Storage in Coolers

Refrigerator Storage

It is recommended to store leftover food in coolers. Storing food items in a cooler extends their expiration date. Be sure to store items that are consumed in large quantities, such as cakes, in coolers or refrigerators.
