Stardew Valley: What Is The Best Food To Bring Into The Mines?
Nestled in the far corner of the map are The Mines, where players must explore, extract ores and gems, and fight various monsters. Mining in is one of the most important aspects of the game, especially in the first couple of years, when players start to unlock valuable resources to upgrade their tools and farming equipment. When first dipping their toes into The Mines, new players may go in with nothing more than a rusty sword and optimism, only to waste an entire day by not refreshing their energy levels.
To be successful in mining, especially in the first year or two of, it is critical to bring the right foods down into The Mines. Due to restricted funds, early-game players will only have access to the crops they grow or forage. Knowing what food will help the most, and how to access it to keep those energy levels high, can make mining a much more fruitful experience.

Keeping up the farmer’s energy is important, as players want to make the most out of every day, especially during that first year.

The biggest plus for cheese, beyond the high level of energy it provides, is how easy it is to obtain for players who might not have enough money to buy pre-made food from the Saloon.
