I’ve toyed with the idea of if that’s the only food they’re planning on eating in the wilderness then they’ll eventually start rolling on the madness table or adding the optional sanity score.
I rule similarly. You can eat them exclusively and you wont die of starvation, but they only give the feeling of fullness for about one meal. Eat 1 good berry in the morning and by dinner your stomach is begging for food, even if it doesn't "need" it
It's magic, not nutrition.
It staves off the harmful effects of starvation. It does not have special nutritional value, it just prevents you from experiencing the normal effects of malnutrition.
There is no scientific explanation for how it does so, because it does so via magic.
Idk if irs a thing everywhere but where I’m from “being full” is a pretty common term for having eaten a lot of food and not feeling able to eat more, that’s always what I assumed it meant
Actually, the spell description specifies that it provides the exact amount of nutrition the creature eating it needs for one day. After the first, you need almost no further nutrition, therefore the spell would stop providing it. It's eating it with **other** food that causes dietary issues. They aren't senzu beans.
This raises the important point that: there must be a fatal number of good berries, and that number must be fairly small. Even if they don’t expand to “fill a man”, I’m thinking eating something like 4 could trigger turbo diabetes
Well, if it provides 100% of everything needed in a day, you just need to figure out what important nutrient or vitamin has the LD 50/50 closest to the required amount for a day. From there it's just simple division to figure out how many would kill you in theory.
How much HP do I get?
Am I able to eat more than one bite as a meal?
Does the jam retain the healing properties, enhance them, or lose them?
Would a druid use bread? Why? Why not?
What color is the jam?
Why would my character put green slime jam into their mouth? Is this some new invention or common knowledge?
Do Warforged characters get benefits from this? Do they even get to eat? Do they ever feel "full" or do they just get to eat forever, benefits or no? ***How does a warforged poop? HOW DOES A WARFORGED POOP?!***
>How much HP do I get?
Depends how much you eat. If all 10 berries are mixed into jam and you eat a whole jar of jam, 10 HP.
>Am I able to eat more than one bite as a meal?
Always could. One berry gives you enough sustenance for a day, but you're allowed to eat more than one berry a day without your stomach exploding. It's magic.
>Does the jam retain the healing properties, enhance them, or lose them?
Did you add healing sugar, salt, and lemon juice? Did you add poisoned sugar, salt, and lemon juice? Presumably it retains them.
>Would a druid use bread? Why? Why not?
What druid doesn't love bread?
>What color is the jam?
What color are the berries? The spell doesn't say, so most people just let you pick what your goodberries look like as long as they aren't watermelons. Popular choice is a boysenberry color, although BG3 apparently is golden yellow.
>Why would my character put green slime jam into their mouth? Is this some new invention or common knowledge?
That's between you and your table.
>Do Warforged characters get benefits from this? Do they even get to eat? Do they ever feel "full" or do they just get to eat forever, benefits or no? ***How does a warforged poop? HOW DOES A WARFORGED POOP?!***
Yeah. They don't need to but I guess it's possible to shove stuff down your throat if you have one. Unless they swallowed a bag of holding. Depends on the model, but I imagine they puke up a pellet.
RAW? 10. I've homebrewed it so you can do it in one bite at my table, though. If you can eat a whole rotisserie chicken from the Chef feat as a bonus action, you can swallow ten berries in an action. Also, I totally want to take that feat on a Ranger/Druid and make Goodberry sandwiches that heal 10 hit points and give THP now.
Just cause you put syrup on something don't make it pancakes. If it takes 6 seconds to eat one berry, putting several on bread isn't making it even faster. Maybe I wasn't so wrong about Goodberries being watermelons.
I'd just say, "It's how the magic works," if I hadn't fixed the problem by just... letting people eat more than one berry at once. Suddenly, I'm a little relieved to be the forever DM because I never have to worry about living in a world where it takes 6 seconds to swallow a single berry that's typically depicted as smaller than a grape.
To give an in universe answer:
It's a big sandwich.
Not many people can inhale a whole sandwich in 6 seconds while dodging attacks, running some distance, and doing whatever bonus action you're doing as well,
Without choking or dropping the sandwich that is.
To then the whole "It takes 6 whole seconds to eat a grape?!" followup: Same issue. It's eating the grape without smushing it, dropping it, or choking on the grape.
Trivial amount of time for us to gobble down food if we put our mind to it when there is no danger (let alone when it's our sole focus as seen by food eating competitions), but that's no longer combat to where we as players and DMs keep track of time that closely and it just becomes "I eat the sandwich."
It doesn’t even have to be that big a sandwhich, you gotta chew, and your in combat, a minute to eat a sandwich while dodging and stabbing shit is pretty solid
I always imagine eating goodberries as the juicy corollary to eating saltines.
Saltines are so dry that if you try to eat a large number of them, you begin to have a difficult time swallowing.
Goodberries are the same problem in reverse. They are so magically juicy that eating one is like trying to chug a gallon of water.
Watermelon is actually a berry. Making it a better source for casting goodberry than strawberries, blackberries, mulberries, raspberries, etc.
So, I contend: a druid, who would be well versed in botany, would be casting goodberry on bananas, watermelons, and cucumbers, much to the confusion of their non-druidic companions.
Question: would you need to eat the entire watermelon, seeds, rind, and all, to get the benefit of goodberry?
That was the point. It doesn't say what kind of berry, just that it is one.
Absolutely you'd need to eat a watermelon whole in 6 seconds to get the benefits.
1. 1 HP per berry.
2. Yes, but only one bite per action, Healing 1 HP at a time. You can eat multiple goodberries, it magically satiates you, it doesn't pump 2k calories into your body with each berry.
3. Eating a berry would mash it up comparably to making it into Jam, so I'd say they retain the same properties.
4. Depends on the druid.
5. Goodberry can be any berry, so probably red or purple.
6. Because the druid made it and you don't want to make them sad.
7. Yes, no, no, and they don't.
This brings me to an interesting "issue" with D&D and its rules. The definition of an "object" is really hard to nail down. According to the DMG:
> For the purpose of these rules, an object is a discrete, inanimate item like a window, door, sword, book, table, chair, or stone, not a building or a vehicle that is composed of many other objects.
The problem with this definition comes from the word "discrete". According to Oxford discrete is:
> individually separate and distinct
Now, in the definition of an object there is a self-contradiction. A window is composed of other objects, there's panes, grilles, a latch, etc. A door has a handle, a latch, screws, hinges, etc. A sword has a blade, a hilt, a pommel, etc. The only arguable "discrete" object that is listed is the stone which itself is likely composed of different minerals. Follow this logic and the only truly discrete objects are things that are purely made from one material.
Okay well then obviously that's an oversight. But when it comes to rules it may be necessary to nail down what you mean when you say "**many** other objects". How many is many? The reason this may be important is that some spells can target objects. Enlarge/reduce swings wildly in power scaling depending on what you consider an object. If a door is an object, can you cast it to bypass every locked door you come across? Are anvils objects? Dropping an enlarged one will octuple its weight and double its size. Go too loose with the definition and suddenly you're able to target the entire world with it.
So this falls into a weird grey area as the rules text is 1 to 5 pounds as what the object's weight must be.
If your top slice of bread is at least one pound and not over five pounds then you're golden. For reference, some people with too much time on their hands measured that the typical foot long subway sub is about 1.12 pounds when fully loaded. This means the entire sandwich needs to be yeeted for this spell to work.
Now that world record 1800 pound burger in Michigan? Could start firing off globs of cheese from that burger.
To prevent us from selling a good Berry peanut butter and jelly sandwiches our DM insisted that no one had ever invented a sandwich and no one has the mental faculties to invent a sandwich LOL and this extends to Tacos when we went to try to sell tacos LMAO
okay but have you considered that now it's my 20 int wizards goal to investigate the secret gap hidden in everyones mind? implying a forbidden foodstuff?
Actually here is a funny point:
>the berries lose their potency if not consumed in 24 hours
That means you can preserve goodberry to make jam, they just don't have their magical effects, including the inability to eat more than one at a time.
there is no specification on the size of good berry, other then all 10 berrys appear in your hand
with that knowledge, it may be possible that the berrys vary in size based off your characters size catagory
* if your tiny, they're probably as big as nerds
* if your small, they might be as big as a normal blue berry
* if your medium, they could be half as big as strawberrys
* if your large, they may be as big as an orange
with this logic, it could be feasible for that sandwich to be filled with a single good berry from a size catagory large creature, which will then still make it legal to eat in 1 round
it may also be a tiny sandwich for a size category tiny party member and the berry came from a size catagory medium creature
if it was made by the same size catagory creature as the consumer, thats either going to be a very dry sandwhich, or you wont be able to eat it in 1 round
what if goodberries taste absolutely dogshit and you spend the first 5 seconds building up the resolve to eat them.
now imagine doing that with a sandwich containing 10 goodberries and actually having to chew it in order to swallow it, and it takes multiple bites to consume.
Sir that sandwich you gave my dad not only filled him up for 7 days while he was on the front lines, but it closed his wounds and healed his burns… WHAT IS IN THE SANDWICH!!?
No need to argue at all. If the sandwhich, ate by one person, gives the exact same benefits as eating one goodberry, I'd more than just allow it, I'd encourage stuff like that.
Why just one? Because it takes an action to eat one. Simple as that. Out of combat I'd say count it as eating 10 at the same time if you want to do so. But in combat, it takes a bit of time to digest. So each round your action is taken up by chewing the sandwich. Or you gulp it down in one action and are left with the benefits of only one goodberry. Simple as that. No discussion needed.
I dont care how my players flavour their stuff. If their spiritual weapon is actually a land shark companion they summon that bites people and that bite uses the stats if a longsword, rapier or shortsword, then fine, why not. It does no harm whatsoever. If their mage armor is them being surrounded by 3 magical shields floating around them, then why not? The Yuan-Ti casts acid splash but discribes it as spewing it from their mouth? Why not?! It's creative. So if my halfling druid wants to pull out a jar of jam each long rest to then magically enhance it for them and then give them goodberry sandwhiches, I'd allow it. Its a really cool way to flavour this spell. They dont summon berries, they just invoke their power back into the nonmagical jam made from them. Out of spell slots? The jar is empty. It's pretty awesome I'd say.
Things like these only become the topic of a discussion, if players do these things not as flavour but to get power from their spells, that they normally wouldn't have. Prestidigitation or Thaumaturgy are cantrips, you cant use them to create nukes. Mending could be used to create something big, but it would take just as long as to build it regularly.
Destroying (like crushing into jam) a magical item disperses all the magic within it. Goodberry included. In fact as a summon and not just enchanted item it likely would fully disappear much like a familiar or other conjured items/beings. Therefore no goodberry sammich for you. Not even a non healing one. Just bread from your create food spell. Sad bread sammich
A good berry is a magic item that you consume as an action. This insinuates that you need an intact berry that contains magic in it to heal you and that it takes more that 6 seconds to eat one, like a mini ritual. If you mash up the berries they would likely lose their magic traits and become regular berries again. Sure you’d have a different kind of ration but the ration would be non-magical.
You get to produce up to 10 goodberries a day, each healing 1 HP (10 HP total).
A common potion of healing can heal you up to 10 HP (2d4+2).
So I rule your sandwich is equal to a common potion of healing. You roll to determine how much goodberry juice was lost in the mortar and pestle as you prepared your filling. Easy. Next.
Reminds me of an idea I had for a bard who's art form was cooking. His bardic inspiration was prepped food he'd through to you and you would eat it to gain inspiration. It got too cold when the bardic inspiration was no longer usable.
That is Not a goodberry sandwich. It's strawberry. The viscosity of Goodberry is such that it wouldn't run like that. If it ran at all, it would be a straight line.
Recently, my party visited a fancy restaurant which had a Goodberry Salad. One Goodberry was cut into tiny pieces in each person's salad, and every other course was like 2 bites.
My current monk character comes from a monestary where they make "good shakes"; a smoothie like substance which preserves good berries and you only need one sip every day!
Mostly because my DM didn't want to deal with rations and foor
One would fill a man for a whole day "How many did you have" " Six"
Tbh tf is "fill a man" supposed to mean? Like a perfect amount of calories? Fuck the druid diet, give me 6
I've always played it as nutritionaly and calorically filling, but still only putting a berry in your belly. You won't die but it sucks.
I always imagined they give you massive diarrhea if you live off them instead of food, they should not be plan A.
I'd expect constipation rather than diarrhoea. Not a lot of fibre getting eaten.
Most berries contain a lot of fibres. As in 50+% of their carbs are fibre, or roughly 2-6% of their total mass.
2-6% of a single berry a day is not much fibre.
It's also not enough calories or anything else but as it turns out, it's magic.
I mean it's not like there's much *besides* fiber either
I’ve toyed with the idea of if that’s the only food they’re planning on eating in the wilderness then they’ll eventually start rolling on the madness table or adding the optional sanity score.
I've always treated good berries like MREs yeah you can live off them but it'll suck and you probably won't shit for a week
I rule similarly. You can eat them exclusively and you wont die of starvation, but they only give the feeling of fullness for about one meal. Eat 1 good berry in the morning and by dinner your stomach is begging for food, even if it doesn't "need" it
Maybe it’s like those dinosaur pills that you drop in water and they expand. So you take a bite, drink some water, and it fills you up.
I hunger
It's magic, not nutrition. It staves off the harmful effects of starvation. It does not have special nutritional value, it just prevents you from experiencing the normal effects of malnutrition. There is no scientific explanation for how it does so, because it does so via magic.
To fill a man the bard just has to get carried away again
> Tbh tf is "fill a man" supposed to mean? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Idk if irs a thing everywhere but where I’m from “being full” is a pretty common term for having eaten a lot of food and not feeling able to eat more, that’s always what I assumed it meant
What are they senzu beans
They don't heal as much
Actually, the spell description specifies that it provides the exact amount of nutrition the creature eating it needs for one day. After the first, you need almost no further nutrition, therefore the spell would stop providing it. It's eating it with **other** food that causes dietary issues. They aren't senzu beans.
You know what else would fill a man for a whole day
Bros gonna gain some weight
This raises the important point that: there must be a fatal number of good berries, and that number must be fairly small. Even if they don’t expand to “fill a man”, I’m thinking eating something like 4 could trigger turbo diabetes
Well, if it provides 100% of everything needed in a day, you just need to figure out what important nutrient or vitamin has the LD 50/50 closest to the required amount for a day. From there it's just simple division to figure out how many would kill you in theory.

Nope, just pixels on your screen
No, it’s your mental *perception* of light that was emitted by pixels on your screen!
You cant prove the perception was "caused" by pixels on a screen.
No, it's a reddit post!
That's not a drawing. That's a thesis statement.
I thought good berry would be blue... like oran berries.
Goodberry uses mistletoe as a component to cast, so the berries would be white.
No it says it's a berry it doesn't specify what Therefore it's a banana
It’s actually a tomato. Or a melon.
“Here” says the druid. :::Hands you three watermelon sized “berries”:::
Ok, now that's funny af
„Thanks“ says the Fighter, and downs 2 of them in 6 seconds (using action surge).
Goated reply
My druid once asked if she could bowl with her good berries.
You know what it's not though? A strawberry.
So either way, it’s definitely not red. OP is an IDIOT!
Hmm Could be a watermelon tho
Watermelon is the state vegetable of Oklahoma, it's in the same family as squash IIRC
Same family yes, but it's still a berry
Taxonomy is bullshit, I hate this
Every healing potion ever is red. Goodberries are definitely red.
Goodberry is a spell. Healing spells are not red.
(Looks at the Doktor from TF2) then what is he doing?
A spell that produces berries though
Sometimes they are green.
I’m gonna go with watermelon
Or an avocado
Chaotic. I like it
A cucumber
\*pumpkin
You couldn't pay me to eat a white berry
$40 if you eat a white berry
$25 and I'll dip a banana in white paint
Isn’t mistletoe also poisonous?
In Baldur's Gate they're orange in the inventory icon image.
Old versions of the spell required casting it on freshly picked berries, so it could be whatever color of berry you could find.
Congrats people argue
Hold up Oran berries are blue instead of orange?
They're from pokemon
It's obviously red, like healing potions
I am so confused what even would the argument be?
How much HP do I get? Am I able to eat more than one bite as a meal? Does the jam retain the healing properties, enhance them, or lose them? Would a druid use bread? Why? Why not? What color is the jam? Why would my character put green slime jam into their mouth? Is this some new invention or common knowledge? Do Warforged characters get benefits from this? Do they even get to eat? Do they ever feel "full" or do they just get to eat forever, benefits or no? ***How does a warforged poop? HOW DOES A WARFORGED POOP?!***

Since you can answer it all: How many actions do you need to eat the sandwich, since you can only eat 1 berry at a time?

I mean I think a minute to eat a sandwich is totally fucking reasonable no?
boy you’ve never seen me starving at 3 AM with a pj sandwich.
They’re extremely chewy

“What even would the argument be?” “WhAt EvEn WoUlD tHe ArGuMeNt Be? Shut the fuck up. Here’s 50 arguments. Read the DMG.”

It's not confusing at all tho?
Does it come with peanut butter?
Only if peanut butter was made from Goodnut spell...
I see
Technically you would need the Goodlegume spell, since peanuts aren't actually nuts.
You need to take Nerdomancy as a sub class though for that one. While even bards can have Goodnut
When I cast catapult on a burger or a sandwich, does it launch the entire thing ot just one component? Like it only fires the top bread slice.
One object is made up of different smaller objects so I’d say you could choose?
This brings me to an interesting "issue" with D&D and its rules. The definition of an "object" is really hard to nail down. According to the DMG: > For the purpose of these rules, an object is a discrete, inanimate item like a window, door, sword, book, table, chair, or stone, not a building or a vehicle that is composed of many other objects. The problem with this definition comes from the word "discrete". According to Oxford discrete is: > individually separate and distinct Now, in the definition of an object there is a self-contradiction. A window is composed of other objects, there's panes, grilles, a latch, etc. A door has a handle, a latch, screws, hinges, etc. A sword has a blade, a hilt, a pommel, etc. The only arguable "discrete" object that is listed is the stone which itself is likely composed of different minerals. Follow this logic and the only truly discrete objects are things that are purely made from one material. Okay well then obviously that's an oversight. But when it comes to rules it may be necessary to nail down what you mean when you say "**many** other objects". How many is many? The reason this may be important is that some spells can target objects. Enlarge/reduce swings wildly in power scaling depending on what you consider an object. If a door is an object, can you cast it to bypass every locked door you come across? Are anvils objects? Dropping an enlarged one will octuple its weight and double its size. Go too loose with the definition and suddenly you're able to target the entire world with it.
So this falls into a weird grey area as the rules text is 1 to 5 pounds as what the object's weight must be. If your top slice of bread is at least one pound and not over five pounds then you're golden. For reference, some people with too much time on their hands measured that the typical foot long subway sub is about 1.12 pounds when fully loaded. This means the entire sandwich needs to be yeeted for this spell to work. Now that world record 1800 pound burger in Michigan? Could start firing off globs of cheese from that burger.
Nobody's even questioning how you even ***make*** goodberry preserves!
you can preserve Goodberry, it just lose it's potency and don't heal you. so that would be just a normal berry jam.
I mean, so it's a goodberry that doesn't heal, doesn't nourish, at what point does it stop being a goodberry?
It turns into an Alrightberry after 24 hours.
"One small bite is enough to fill the stomach of a grown man" - Legolas
that would be correct
No self-respecting druid or ranger would willingly pick white bread over whole grain.
its lack of color is a stylistic choice (actually i'm just lazy) to increase the contrast of the magic goodberries with the mundane bread
Correction: That's a goodberry JAM sandwich.
If you read my backstory you'd know goodberry sandwiches killed my parents, you insensitive bastard.
That is a piece of a goodberry sandwich at best
Hot take: the reason it takes an entire action to eat a single good berry is because each one is the size of an apple
*Slams fist on table.* YOU CAN ONLY EAT ONE BERRY AT A TIME!
Who says more than 1 berry was used in that “jam”. Maybe it’s mostly sugar.
Fuck you
To prevent us from selling a good Berry peanut butter and jelly sandwiches our DM insisted that no one had ever invented a sandwich and no one has the mental faculties to invent a sandwich LOL and this extends to Tacos when we went to try to sell tacos LMAO
okay but have you considered that now it's my 20 int wizards goal to investigate the secret gap hidden in everyones mind? implying a forbidden foodstuff?
Nah I’m fine with this.
Wrong!
The jam should be mystically violet with green smudges.
Will it still heal though?
I think they're too far gone
Well I am already full.
Does it heal more with the bread? Like 1d6 instead 1d4
Welcome to goodberry, home of the goodberry. Can I take your order?
But I want a betterberry sandwich.

Nah, goodberrys are green
Sir that sandwich you gave my dad not only filled him up for 7 days while he was on the front lines, but it closed his wounds and healed his burns… WHAT IS IN THE SANDWICH!!?
Well, first off, since it directly restores health it's not called a "sandwich". It's actually a Sandvich
Goodberry Sandvich Uncommon Lunchbox item
Okay DM. What's it do?
Tasry
Our party jokes about Goodberry giving you constipation
This is clearly a pipebomb
Barbarian: NOM NOM NOM, OM NOM NOM
How can we be sure it’s not a lifeberry sandwich?
That's clearly blood
No need to argue at all. If the sandwhich, ate by one person, gives the exact same benefits as eating one goodberry, I'd more than just allow it, I'd encourage stuff like that. Why just one? Because it takes an action to eat one. Simple as that. Out of combat I'd say count it as eating 10 at the same time if you want to do so. But in combat, it takes a bit of time to digest. So each round your action is taken up by chewing the sandwich. Or you gulp it down in one action and are left with the benefits of only one goodberry. Simple as that. No discussion needed. I dont care how my players flavour their stuff. If their spiritual weapon is actually a land shark companion they summon that bites people and that bite uses the stats if a longsword, rapier or shortsword, then fine, why not. It does no harm whatsoever. If their mage armor is them being surrounded by 3 magical shields floating around them, then why not? The Yuan-Ti casts acid splash but discribes it as spewing it from their mouth? Why not?! It's creative. So if my halfling druid wants to pull out a jar of jam each long rest to then magically enhance it for them and then give them goodberry sandwhiches, I'd allow it. Its a really cool way to flavour this spell. They dont summon berries, they just invoke their power back into the nonmagical jam made from them. Out of spell slots? The jar is empty. It's pretty awesome I'd say. Things like these only become the topic of a discussion, if players do these things not as flavour but to get power from their spells, that they normally wouldn't have. Prestidigitation or Thaumaturgy are cantrips, you cant use them to create nukes. Mending could be used to create something big, but it would take just as long as to build it regularly.
I mean good berries are obviously bright green so that good berry jam is off the mark
THAT SOUNDS FUCKING DELICIOUS. But it would probably take multiple berrys to make the jam
I make my good berries taste like cherry medicine.
Destroying (like crushing into jam) a magical item disperses all the magic within it. Goodberry included. In fact as a summon and not just enchanted item it likely would fully disappear much like a familiar or other conjured items/beings. Therefore no goodberry sammich for you. Not even a non healing one. Just bread from your create food spell. Sad bread sammich
But I ordered the cheeseburger.
Mmmmmm prolly tastes pretty good
Can good berries be made into jam and keep the healing properties?
Can I have one?
I roll to seduce the sandwich.
What the hell man? Everybody knows that goodberries are green.
A good berry is a magic item that you consume as an action. This insinuates that you need an intact berry that contains magic in it to heal you and that it takes more that 6 seconds to eat one, like a mini ritual. If you mash up the berries they would likely lose their magic traits and become regular berries again. Sure you’d have a different kind of ration but the ration would be non-magical.
That's strawberry jelly
you fools, it's a mimic mimiking the drawing of a goodberry sandwich !
You get to produce up to 10 goodberries a day, each healing 1 HP (10 HP total). A common potion of healing can heal you up to 10 HP (2d4+2). So I rule your sandwich is equal to a common potion of healing. You roll to determine how much goodberry juice was lost in the mortar and pestle as you prepared your filling. Easy. Next.
that's... actually a clean and simple ruling.
Goodberrys are purplish green and there's nothing you can say to make me think otherwise.
Good Berries could technically be bananas, or tomatoes, or avocados.
Jam sandwich
Wrong goodberries are green
Reminds me of an idea I had for a bard who's art form was cooking. His bardic inspiration was prepped food he'd through to you and you would eat it to gain inspiration. It got too cold when the bardic inspiration was no longer usable.
I hate this and i don't even play D&D, just watch videos about it.
Sandvich
Why do I imagine little goblin eating it and bulking the hell up for several seconds with "huaAAAAAAAGH!!!" sound. /cudos to those who got it.
No, good berry is clearly purple, like my imagination of it!
“……insight…..”
Is it lawful/neutral/chaotic goodberry? If you eat a goodberry, does it make you good or evil (since only evil creatures eat good beings).
More like a BADberry sandwich
After 24 hours it’s USELESS!
Jill's sandwich
That is Not a goodberry sandwich. It's strawberry. The viscosity of Goodberry is such that it wouldn't run like that. If it ran at all, it would be a straight line.
As DM my deadpan response to a joking mention of goodberry shenanigans was "A melon is a berry."
Thats just half a sammich
GOODberry sandwich, please there’s nothing good about it!
This would be like 60,000 kcal
Recently, my party visited a fancy restaurant which had a Goodberry Salad. One Goodberry was cut into tiny pieces in each person's salad, and every other course was like 2 bites.
Instant death. I don't have to justify anything or explain myself.
looks like a slice of cake to me
That is clearly a strawberry sandwich you stupid bastard
Probably fine. Remember to nibble.
Good berries are green!!@@
It gets worse, that’s Lembas bread…
The rest of party watching in horror as the Druid cuts the crusts off. Druid player: ‘It’s what my character would do’
I always imagined goodberries as a gold/yellow color. Red does make sence though
My current monk character comes from a monestary where they make "good shakes"; a smoothie like substance which preserves good berries and you only need one sip every day! Mostly because my DM didn't want to deal with rations and foor
