With a lot of the difficulties inGrounded 2, players will have to juggle their hunger along with their thirst. While it can be easy tofind water to drinkby looking for dew, finding food takes another step to safely eat. A few bugs can be killed and harvested to get raw meat to eat, but raw meat can be dangerous to eat.
Eating raw food has the chance of poisoning you, giving you a damage over time effect for a short amount of time. All food can be cooked to make it safe to eat and restore more hunger, so you should always cook food before eating it; here’s how to do it.
How to Make a Roasting Spit in Grounded 2
The first and most basic way to cook food is by using a Roasting Spit. To make one of these, first open the crafting menu:
The Roasting Spit is the top option and requires the following items to make it:
After selecting the Roasting Spit, you’ll be able to place an outline of it anywhere you want to actually build the spit. After placing the outline, exit the crafting menu and interact with the outline to use the materials in your inventory to build the Roasting Spit.

To use the Roasting Spit,interact with it to light it, which can be done as often and whenever you want without costing any resources. Once lit, you can interact with the Roasting Spit to place three raw foods onto the spit to let them cook.
All raw foods that can be cooked will be highlighted.
Food left on the spit won’t burn, but it only takes a few seconds to cook anything. Once cooked, the name of the item will change, and it can bepulled off the spit directlyor even eaten directly from the spit. Cooked food not only restores more hunger, but also restores health, along with not poisoning you. While the Roasting Spit cooks raw food, you’ll want to work towards the Cooking 101 upgrade in the science shop, as it unlocks the Cookery. The Cookery does require more materials to craft, and even more materials to cook, but the resulting meals offer a lot more benefits than just individually cooked items. The Cookery is crafted using:
Meals do require a lot more work, butthey give buffsoutside of just the health regeneration, helping you explore more easily or be better in combat.
