Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater/Food

From StrategyWiki, the video game walkthrough and strategy guide wiki

To survive in MGS3, you'll need to eat. Pretty much any wildlife is edible, but their effects (and taste) vary.

Siberian Inkcap

Tastes awful and recovers very little stamina.

Russian Glowcap

Recharges your batteries when you eat it. You can also throw it to use as a light source in dark areas, or throw it at Volgin to absorb his lightning attacks.

Calorie Mate

You can find these in enemy supply rooms. They taste great, never spoil, and recover two whole bars of stamina.

Instant Noodles

You can find these in supply rooms. EVA will give you a few as well at the top of the mountain overlooking Groznyj Grad. They taste just as good as Calorie Mates, and recover about the same amount of stamina. (Strangely, they're obviously of Japanese origin, but how they got into Russia is completely unknown, considering that Japan and the Soviet Union were never allied.)

Tsuchinoko

Lay a mousetrap in Bolshaya Past South or Graniny Gorki South and wait about 10 minutes nearby. On your return, there should be a Tsuchinoko caught in the trap. Also, after receiving your equipment from EVA at the waterfall, it will be near a log in eastern Tikhogornyj if you caught it before. Tastes great, but don't eat it--finishing the game with it nets you the Infinity facepaint.
