Food Demand

[Blaze1961]

How much does a single villager eat per day (nutritional value). Is it the demand per day number on the management screen? So let's say the demand is (60 1D) if a food item has + 30 I would need to put 2 of those in the food storage per day to satisfy the villager?

Depending on the settings, perks and age of that villager.
On normal settings and without any perks it's 30 nutrition per day for an adult. That's equal to 5 roasted meat(6 each). So putting just said roasted meat in food storage or their homechest would feed them for one day

I have 24 adult villagers so I need 30x24=720. My problem is I can only make 11.65 of +30 food per day and that is only 11.65x30=349.5 How am I suppose to cover feeding 24 adults? did I expand to fast without being able to produce better foods?

The quickest option would be to cook something yourself extra as well.
It's not that unusual to cook extra in the beginning since you always start with lower level npc's.

I also know that some start with feeding their npc's roasted meat, since that's faster in production, additionally you can let your hunter dry some meat.

Ok TY, I have been keeping them fed by cooking roasted meats. I just wanted to automate it and have them make extra for me to eat or sell. My cook is lvl 5 so I'll just keep cooking until it can cover the needs. Maybe I'll add a second cook I have the Kitchen two unlocked now

Since I have your attention I'd also like to suggest putting the nutritional values of food in the "Goods Production" when we are selecting which foods to cook. Right now it seems I have to switch to another tab to find it and when I try and go back it doesn't take me back to the goods production screen it's really annoying.
