Grounded How to find food and drink easily

Source: Windows Central
Food and drink are paramount to survival in Grounded, considering time spent and certain actions deplete your hunger and thirst meters, which can lead to health loss and even death. You should try to keep your character's needs topped off at all times if possible, and also look into carrying supplies for longer excursions away from your main base. Here are some general tips for staying healthy.
There are two types of water: clean and unclean. Clean water is safe to drink, and unclean water will deplete your hunger meter when consumed.
  • You can drink unclean water from dirt pools in a pinch, but make sure you have a supply of food with you to regenerate your food meter afterward.
  • The most abundant source of clean water is dew, which can be found glistening on the tops of blades of grass in the morning. Throw a rock at them to dislodge them, then interact with them to slurp them up.
  • Additional sources of clean water include juice found near discarded cans or juice boxes, or aphid honeydew, which aphids sometimes leave lying around.
  • Analyze grub parts to unlock the recipe for a water skin. This lets you carry two water sources around with you.
  • A dew collector is a construction you can place in your base, which generates dew sources every few in-game hours. They require quartzite found in tunnels underground, and spider webbing you can loot from a killed spider-type mob.
  • Most smaller mobs in-game drop meat, such as gnats, weevils, and aphids. You can cook these on a cooking fire, and carry them around with you as a source of nutrition. They will, however, go rotten after a day, so you can't keep them for too long.
  • You can use rotten food, however, to craft mushroom growing pits, which provides a steady supply of food. They're constructed and researched from acorn top parts, which you can get from acorns near the big tree you might see in the distance.
  • In a pinch, you can often find mushrooms all over the place that can give you some sustenance, but meat provides a far bigger bonus.
