Fighting hunger is one of the mechanics of Sons of the Forest, so you need to be able to cook and eat food. There are several ways to find and eat food in this game. After the crash in the forest, you will need to survive for a long time. Let’s see how you can save yourself from starvation by finding or preparing food.
How can you cook and eat food in Sons of the Forest
After you first explore the forest and get your bearings, you will want to eat. There are two main ways to satisfy hunger:
- canned food
- cooked food
canned food
The first and easiest way to eat at Sons of the Forest is to eat canned food. If you’ve looted the crash site enough, you may already have some of them in your inventory. If not, the crash site is the easiest place to get canned food initially. You can also find it at the nearby base camp if you follow the river.
To eat canned food, open your inventory by pressing the “I”key. Then right click the canned food and also the can opener. After that click on the gear icon. This will cause you to eat the contents of the canned food.

Preparing cooked food is not as easy as buying and eating canned food. To cook food, you need to build a basic or enhanced fire. But first, you’ll need to track down what you can eat. The most common and easiest object to hunt and kill is a rabbit.
Once you’ve found the rabbit, chase after it and land a direct blow with your axe. After he is killed, hold the “E”key to take some of his meat. Then go back to where you started the fire. Press “E”to open part of the inventory and select “Raw Meat”. Now all you have to do is wait for it to cook. Once it’s cooked properly, just grab it and you can start eating.
