Quick item summary
Quick answer
Pumpkin Slices are a food item in DayZ created by cutting up a whole Pumpkin with a Knife. Cutting a Pumpkin into slices makes it take up more total inventory space, but it lets you eat the food in smaller portions. Pumpkin Slices can be eaten raw, baked over a fireplace using a Long Wooden Stick, boiled in a Cooking Pot, dried, burned, or become rotten. Burned or rotten Pumpkin Slices should be avoided because they can cause poisoning.
