Food Ideas

Recommended Posts

I became the designated cook between me and my friend since I put points into the cooking skill. Recently though, I felt like the foods seem a bit...lacking, so to speak. I mean, the Pumpkin Cheesecake is probably the most interesting item on the list of foods you can make in the campfire if we’re excluding Grandpa’s recipes (and they’re not really food either). So I have here some food items and what would be required to craft them (without adding any new ingredient items):

 

Fried Chicken Meal

- Raw Meat

- Animal Fat

- Cornmeal

- Corn

- Potato

 

Coffee Cake

- Cornmeal

- Animal Fat

- Grain Alcohol

- Coffee Beans

 

Wastelander’s Spaghetti

- Can of Pasta

- Raw Meat

- Mushroom

- Bottled Murky Water

 

Tuna Sandwich

- Can of Tuna

- Cornbread

- Egg

 

Grits (Courtesy of Theodryck)

- Corn Meal

- Animal Fat

- Water

 

Blueberry Jam

- Jar of Honey

- Blueberries

 

Honey Baked Ham

- Raw Meat

- Jar of Honey

- Animal Fat

 

Wastelander’s Salad (Courtesy of Theodryck)

- Plant Fibers

- Snow Berries

- Blueberries

 

Burger and Fries (partially inspired by Theodryck)

- Rotting Flesh

- Animal Fat

- Corn Bread

- Potato

 

Vodka

- Potato

- Bottled Murky Water

 

These are just the first few I can come up with, the amounts and values of restoration I’ll leave up to you guys. I will add additional suggestions and other ideas I come up with for fun.

Those are really good food recipes, but I dunno if I would add any more to the game, tbh. There are already a lot of foods you can make and after a bit you just start getting too much overlap. I mean, you could also add things like grits (corn meal/water/animal fat) or steak and eggs (grilled meat/ eggs) and maybe even french fries ( potatoes/animal fat) but I think there comes a point when adding more stuff is just adding more stuff that doesn't really do anything.

Yea, hence why I said the Pumpkin Cheesecake is the only real interesting food item, since it actually DOES something. I can imagine my Coffee Cake idea granting stamina regen like Coffee would, etc.

I guess it would be down to what resources you had available to you at the time. Hell, you could probably even add "wastelander's salad" (plant fibers​/snowberries/blueberries) for those doing a vegan build (or just need more fiber). I see you liked my grits idea, btw. Although I think I liked the French fries best ( goes great with chilli dog!)

rotting flesh for a burger? Ew, lol. I don't eat the brains...

New food just for the sake of variety. Where do I sign? :)

 

Also, could there be a way to implement cooking just as a mix of ingredients? Like to make up your own recipes? For example, I have one meat, one corn and a potato, so I chuck it in a pot with a jar of water and get out some kind of stew that's worth some % of those combined ingredients?
