Deathlove 2286 Posted October 1, 2014 For me its a list of this. 1, Peach: For being one of the newest editions to Dayz i really like this food. It gives quite a bit of your health and hydration lvls. 2. Apples: One of the most numerous foods in game. Can save your life especially when your starting out as a fresh spawn. Never underestimate the power of a tasty apple! 3. Rice and Cereal: While maybe not offering the same benefits as canned beans they still boost your health up quite a bit. Also i actually eat dry cereal in real life so i find it quite tasty lol. What are your favorite foods and why? Also as a side topic i cant wait to see what else gets put in latter on. I see we have pumpkins in game or some kind of squash. Sure would be nice if we can actually eat them lol. I also would like to see candy. Maybe not chocolates but hard candies have a habit of lasting MUCH longer. Peppermints, gummy candies, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elle 562 Posted October 1, 2014 steaks from anything but usually boar steaks as cows seem to be a mostly southern creature. they also have the added benefit of needing a fire to cook so I get nice and warm while cooking them. I haven't bothered to open a can in almost 2 weeks. anybody want a can opener? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I haven't had really any luck with the meats yet. I attempted to cook some meat in a boiler and a gas tank but it burnt the damn food lol. Im probably going to try to cook with a fire place when i get the chance and see if that does anything different. Probably going to try fishing soon to.

ryanh 36 Posted October 1, 2014 Since i Travel light and without a backpack I prefer Powdered Milk, and Rice (gives the most food). Peaches are always a nice find whenever im looting players/buildings for the hihgh hydration as well as stated in the OP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Im pretty sure most places in the world carry standard supplies of some type of candy no matter where they are from. And even than if you got bees that make honey, maple trees or something else sweet you can make treats from them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I cannot imagine ones stomach would much enjoy eating an entire bag of dried rice. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baker. 1484 Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) I would like to be able to cannibalize my kills, then you would be my favorite food. Edited October 1, 2014 by Bakermensch 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deathlove 2286 Posted October 1, 2014 I would like to be able to cannibalize my kills, then you would be my favorite food. You can cut players up and zombies up in Arma 3 Breaking point and eat there bodies. As well as in Dayz 2017. So maybe they should include that but you should get LOTS of diseases if you don't have the antibiotics to cure it with. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pilgrim* 3514 Posted October 2, 2014 (edited) Its back on experimental. Also here is some food for thought with rice. Lets further that idea with meat and potatoes and make this! 83 Hey this was just what we used to eat in the Jungle !(aint booby-trapped is it ?) *** PS = SAS CURRY (one of my fave things)You make enough curry for 4 or 5 people.. you make it as HOT as you can (and there are WAYS to DO that)(vindaloo paste in jars from the RIGHT place, couple of jars.. plus chili sauce.. ya know.. whatever..)Fairly cook the meat first, then add the other stuff (vegetables).. use anything to go with the meat, but keep it chopped reasonably small - no whole potatoes etc... then throw in a few good handfulls of dried rasins and sultanas, plus any dried fruit flakes ya can find, etc..put in a lot more paste than you think you shouldlet it all stew for 24 hours so the "sauce " gets right in to the ingredients then just TWO of you eat it all. The only rule is you can't pass out until you've finished it. Meaning none left, dude.(then you pass out.. I dunno why, that's just how it happens)You'd be amazed hyow good that is.. Also a neat trick is to use granules of durum wheat, semolina - the stuff used for couscous, instead of rice for the baseThat is good.
