    Monsters still have a 1 in 10 or 1 in 20 (I don't remember which exactly) chance of dropping meat from any weapon. Also, there're lots of other options for food. So if you have a good weapon, just mow down some monsters. Or just warp over to an easier planet and mow down monsters there.

    I gather my meat on planets in the Alpha Sector. Works great for me. Building my home in the Alpha Sector makes it even more convenient.

    X sector crossbows (regular bolts) are the new hunting weapons, they drop meat when killing monsters. (I'd recommend getting level 10 X sector crossbows, which are found in glitch castles, kill the guards and they might drop one)

    Built two hunting knives when I first started the game. That's all I used for the entirety of tier 1. I had 180+ meat when I left. It's a good idea to plan ahead.

    But yeah, I just go to alpha planets if I need quick food. I have a lot of plants that I'll be farming soon, so I can make other things as well.

    TvK, this is an internet forum. We don't appreciate you using language like that around here.

    I thought you meant like Real life grocery store, since there isn't really a grocery store in the game. Unless you imply that the food stands of the avians, the glitch barns/inns/bakeries and the apex stores are grocery stores. Also the floran traders, can't forget my fellow flower-people (I'm a glitch)

    Buy food from vendors like TvK said. Or grow your own.

    I still haven't found a good recipe guide yet, but I know that different recipes have different results for races. Insta-ful in one bite. Regenerate health. Run faster, jump higher, throw it on the ground, etc.
