Dinkum is a farming and life sim game where you can go looking for trouble if you want to, in the form of dangerous beasts. It is also a survival game, as some of its elements are dependent on your ability to kill and survive in the wild. You will also need to know what are the different foods you can eat in the game to keep your energy and health up. In this guide we’ll take you through the question of why you should always cook foods in Dinkum.
Cooking Foods in Dinkum
There is a lot of food available in the game if you know where to look. You can begin by harvesting trees for fruit, which requires no energy at all. You can even forage late into the night without losing energy.

You can get fruits from trees and cactus flowers from cacti in the desert. If you go hunting after getting your Hunting License, you will be able to kill animals such as Crocos for croco meat, Roos for meat, Turkeys for Raw Drumstick and so on. All of these foods can be cooked.
While you get a certain amount of health and stamina from every food that you consume, the cooked version gives you a higher amount. This is essentially why you should cook your food. You can cook them over firepits, or on a BBQ that you can purchase from John. A BBQ cooks thrice as fast as a firepit, so it is a good investment. You can place two side by side and cook faster as well in order to save time.
Cooking is another activity that doesn’t require energy, so you can do it all at night. The next day, you are ready for adventure with freshly cooked batches of food. Or, you can sell it all to John for huge profits, as cooked food is more expensive.
