You’ll need to know the Slime Rancher 2 favorite foods if you want to get the most out of your slime farm. Feeding a slime their most preferred foods will get them to produce twice the amount of Plort, which is flexibly used throughout the game. It takes a lot of time through trial and error to figure out what each slime loves to eat, so this guide will help you get right to the chase and stock up on their favorite foods early.

Largo Slimes adopt the favored food of the Slime it was before becoming a Largo Slime, so you’ll need to keep track of what it was. The same goes for giant Gordo Slimes. As always, be careful with Largo Slimes as they can transform into hostile Tarr Slimes if they eat a Plort of a type it doesn’t produce.
