How To Get Hug In A Bowl Deviant

So, unlucky for you, there is no easy way to get this deviant. We are going to go over both strategies and let you decide which one works best for you.
Locating the Hug in a Bowl Deviant
The Hug in a Bowl deviant is one of the rare drops in the game. Therefore, you might need to change the world a couple of times until you finally see it. Right now, there are two locations where you can find this deviant. These are:
- On a road in Iron River (map coordinates 4937, -3907)
- Under a bridge in Broken Delta (map coordinates 5771, -6056)
However, it looks like there is a problem with the spawn, and you might not find the deviant in this location. Yet, you are free to check it out, if you cannot find it even after changing the world, try our next method.
Crafting Hug in a Bowl Deviant
As we mentioned, you might not be able to find the deviant in the location we have mentioned because of existing errors in the game. But, this method is guaranteed, so you do not have to worry about it. We will get you that deviant!
For this method, you need to craft a recipe in your base. While doing that, you can get help from Chefosaurus Rex Deviant. In order to get the recipe, you need to open your Memetics screen and unlock the Electric Stoves memetic. Doing this will unlock the recipe for you.
In order to craft the Hug in a Bowl recipe, you will need a couple of ingredients ready. You might already have a couple of these ingredients, but we are still going to talk about how to acquire each of these ingredients just in case. Now let’s take a look at all the ingredients.
- Salt (1): This ingredient is the easiest one to get. All you need to do is head to the sea and collect some seawater. Then, you will be able to use the sea salt for your recipes.
- Peppercorn (1): Head to Blackfell and interact with Lacey to purchase peppercorn seeds. You can purchase them for 50 Energy Links. Try to get as much as you can as they are useful for many recipes in the game, and you will need to make more than one Hug in a Bowl until you get a deviant.
- Wheat (2): For this one, you will need to go to Citrus County. Teleport to Deadsville to get there more easily. Then, head to the coordinates 5704, -5354. In this area, you are going to find a lot of wheat. Collect them as much as you want.
- Pork (1): Head to the north of Tall Grass Inn, the coordinates you need to go are 2194, -3523. In this location, you are going to see boars around. Simply take the pork from them. Remember to change the world if you need more.
- Cabbage (1): For cabbages, head to Meyer’s Market. Once you are there, take a look at the plantation and you will see that cabbages are growing there. You can simply go to them and collect them. If you do not see cabbages there, try to change the world and see if they appear. It will be pretty easy since there is a teleportation tower just right there.
After collecting all the ingredients, you can head back to your base to craft your Hug in a Bowl. Yet, you will need one more ingredient, but it is not actually different than the ones we mentioned. You will need to have a deviated peppercorn. In order to get one, go to your supplies workbench and craft fertilizer mutation boost. Doing this will make it easier to have a deviated crop.
If the fertilizer is not unlocked for you, you can open your memetics, find the Fertilizer II, and unlock it. After planting the peppercorns with the fertilizer, you can also use Buzzy Bee Deviant to help you grow them.
Now that you have all the ingredients, head to your kitchen set and start crafting Hug in a Bowl. You will need to craft more than one to get the deviant. We are not sure how many tries you need to do, but we believe it is not going to take you that long.
