The Food Crisis of 2015

"I can't stand melons any more."

- quotum The Food Crisis of 2015 is the name given to the long period of time in 2015 when there was no high quality food to be found anywhere on LontyLan.

The first crisis
Near to the beginning of The Iron Age, the crisis begun. Previously, beef and chicken had been the main sources of food, but due to the demolition of the Cow Farm and the Chicken Farm, these were no longer sustainable food sources. The founders were forced to turn to their previously neglected Potato, Wheat and Carrot Farm, but they did not invest enough time into harvesting the crops and it was later destroyed. The founders were then forced to eat the only plentiful food source on LontyLan - melons. Melons are highly annoying to eat as they have very low saturation, and only replenish one hunger bar. At the beginning of Daucus, the period of food shortage came to an abrupt end.

The grace period
For a short period of time, there was a sufficient food source on LontyLan. This is known today as the grace period. This period happened just after the Gold Farm was constructed. Since they had large amounts of gold, they realised that they could easily make golden carrots - which are widely known as the best food source on Minecraft. Not too long after this, the founders became bored of spending insane amounts of time at the Gold Farm, and the food crisis continued.

The second crisis
During the middle stages of Daucus, when usage of the Gold Farm had dropped significantly, the founders, once again, had to go back to eating melons. Thankfully, towards the end of Daucus, usage of the Wheat and Carrot Farm increased significantly, and carrots became a much more useful and replenish-able food source.
