Which food categories do you rely on when gluttoning

What food categories do people use when gluttoning? Poll allows multiple options, but please choose only those which grant you majority of bile-ups

I know people who rely only on game meats (meatsmoker).

I find myself using mostly poultry, bread, corn, vegetables and game meats.
Poultry and meat because you can get good purity with knives and because they are easy to restore. Corn, bread and veggies because they can be spammed.
Fish don't seem to have good recipes. Almost all easy berry recipes completely ravage berry category so can't really use more than 1 or 2 during gluttony session.
Fungus, nuts and bugs require foraging so making larger amount of food takes too much time (and new gluttony system is quite spammy - gotta eat a lot).

I actually found myself selecting all the categories but berries. I don't really do the 'smoked meat only' thing and like to make foods from all the categories and my session last night included pretty much every category. The one category I don't much use is Berries, due to the fact that it seems to be divided between newbie foods and foods that require sugar.

I see you have Advanced Cooking. I don't, though I may get it soon.

The berry group does seem to be not quite worth the effort. Many recipes require too much sugar or too many berries. Pemmican requires lard which has much better uses. Its sandwich has too high of penalties and takes too much effort to make to be a reliable way to restore bread like the other sandwiches. Jam and Jelly are not worth it for what they cost to make so are really only used to make other things. Even berry pies are not worth the effort when compared to the other pies. Also Berry purity is based on pot purity which is slower than field and mine purity and harder to spam large amounts of high purity goods.

They are fairly easy to make lots of but there is no variable ingredient that restores berries so if you eat more than a couple in a session you are also going to need Cranberry Sauce.

I keep a few pots going for each type of berry, just to continue raising the aether. When I harvest the berries I make a few bluebeary since they're easy, and just eat one of them in a session.

Meat, it's the only food that doesn't let me gather/make materials for hours before gluttoning.

I do had to make 10 meatsmokers & it's still not enough.

I really dislike the new gluttony-system, we need way to many materials !!!

I'm so glad smoked meat will be made less OP soon. Seriously got so sick of spamming smoked meat.

I really really would like more variable ingredients to restore more categories, would be so much more fun. And I agree with alloin about needing too many materials. I find it less fun cooking when I have to grab so much stuff to make just one thing.

I agree here, I feel like they're pushing us into towns now.
