Enjoy This Sneaky Palworld Food Hack While You Still Can

There's an easy way to save tons of food in . Food is more central to the experience than the average survival game, simply because players are required to feed both themselves and their Pals. That includes both Pals captured into the party and Pals left working at home base, so collecting and maintaining a significant stock of food is vital. Not eating will decrease a Pal's Sanity, which reduces their productivity. Forget to feed Pals or let the feed box run empty, and the day-to-day operations of a base will grind to a halt.

Beyond collecting Red Berries and hunting wild game, there are a number of things players can do to increase their overall food output: plant seeds back at base, recruit Pals with a lower rate of hunger, or cook foraged items to increase their nutritional value. That's all well and good, but there are other risks to the food supply that may make even the best efforts worthless. However, there's one very sneaky way to keep food stocks high — even if it is a little underhanded.

The problem is, all food in comes with an expiration date. Look closely at a stack of food in the game's UI, and there'll be a little timer at the bottom of the icon window. Once this ticks down, a single item from the stack will go bad, at which point it'll simply disappear from existence. This doesn't tend to be a problem in the early game, when most food is foraged and eaten immediately. However, once the player sets up a fully operational base with several receptacles for food, stacks of Red Berries can easily go to waste.

However, there are two very easy ways to avoid food expiration in. Simply moving the food item into a container will completely reset the expiration timer. This trick can be repeated indefinitely, and works with just about any kind of container: a chest, a feed box, a cooler — anything that food can be placed into. It's currently working as of version 0.1.1.0 of, even after the January 23, 2024, patch that fixed some issues and added a "" button to
