Grounded 2 Food Guide: How to Stay Fed and Avoid Starvation Early On

Learn the best early game food sources in Grounded 2 to keep your hunger in check.

In Grounded 2, you’re shrunk down to insect size, but your appetite stays stubbornly human-sized. Finding food quickly becomes a matter of survival as you look at the backyard full of bugs and grass. This guide covers how to get your hands on the best early snacks to keep starvation at bay.

First, don’t waste time munching on grass, it’s not edible. Instead, your go-to food early on will be hunting small critters like aphids, weevils, and orb spiders. Killing these bugs and cooking their meat on a roasting spit will give you quick bites. You’ll usually need two pieces to fill your hunger meter, since bug meat isn’t exactly a feast. If you’re looking for something easier to grab, small mushrooms are everywhere and can be eaten raw, though you’ll need quite a few to feel full.

Thes are your early food options:

  • Aphids, Weevils, Orb Spiders: Kill and cook their meat on a roasting spit for quick energy.
  • Small Mushrooms: Eat raw; convenient but less filling.

Food items show a green circle on their icon indicating how long before they spoil. Eat your snacks before they turn rotten, or toss them on your garden plot as fertilizer. It’s a bit of a pain to keep track, but rotten food won’t help you survive.

After completing a few missions, you can buy the Cooking 101 bundle from the Science Shop at any Ranger Outpost for 1,000 Raw Science points. This unlocks cooking actual meals by combining ingredients, which add bonuses beyond just filling your hunger. Sounds fancy, but it’s worth it if you want to stop living off bug jerky.

Beware: if your hunger bar empties, you’ll become malnourished, which cuts your stamina. Stamina is crucial since running, attacking, and blocking all drain it. Lose stamina, and those bugs will tear you apart. Grounded 2’s survival demands quick thinking and smart snack choices. What’s your go-to grub so far?
