No matter how big your arsenal, how secure your base is, how good your plan is, or how many zombies you kill, you won't last without food. To survive, you must have the proper knowledge on what foods to search for, how to gather food, how to prepare it, and how to make it safe for eating.

See, eating is a tricky thing. You must eat to survive, yet too much food can be deadly. You must know how to cook properly, or you can become ill. When gathering natural items for consumption, you must know the difference between edible things and dangerous things.

Beyond that, it is highly beneficial to keep a varied diet, to raise morale and keep meals interesting. Though more important than a varied diet, is a properly balanced diet. Meals MUST include the things you need to survive.

For example: Nuts and meat contain protein, milk contains vitamins and calcium, bananas contain potassium, vegetables contain vitamins and antioxidants, fruit is nutritious, and so on and so on.

With the required knowledge, eating delicious, varied, and properly balanced meals are relatively simple. Browse through the pages listed below, and learn one of the most, if not the most useful skill come Z-day – Staying Fed.
