Allies, including the Player, consume 3 Food each day, so keeping your stocks up is always a concern. Water is considered part of the food supply. In the beginning you might be able to scavenge a lot of preserved food, but don't forget about long term solutions like building a garden. Also, you have the ability to ration the provisions, but less food and water will lower morale.
