Guide to Food

Fullness and Starvation
You will start your round at a random level of fullness and thirst. If you are too hungry, you will start to move more slowly and eventually die. Nutrition is gained through a digestion process, so even if you don't see the indicator change immediately after eating, it will.

Some things will decrease your hunger faster such as getting sick or getting caught out in the cold for too long. Minor physical damage will be the least of your concerns if you find yourself starving to death while trying to outrun local wildlife.

Reagents and Condiments
You get these mostly from grinding, blending or mixing. To mix reagents, put them in the same container. You should hear a bubbling sound if it's successful. Grinding foods reduces them to their component parts.
