{{See also|Cooking|Food}}
For obvious reasons, a Sim cannot survive for very long without food. As long as a [[refrigerator]] is available, a Sim can have a snack, a frozen heat-and-eat meal,<ref>Called "Quick Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner" in ''The Sims'', "TV Dinner" in ''The Sims 2'', and "Microwave Meal" in ''The Sims 3''</ref>, or a regular meal. A Sim can also serve a group meal (which is the same as a regular meal except one Sim prepares several servings). ''The Sims 2'' and ''The Sims 3'' added several cold foods, such as cereal, sandwiches, ice cream, and instant meals-in-a-can.
 
If a Sim is lacking a refrigerator for whatever reason, or is unable to cook, they can also phone for a [[pizza]]. However, eating a pizza is not nearly as fulfilling as cooking a meal, and it can take quite a while for it to arrive. Also, a pizza is more expensive than a group meal, costing §30-40. In ''The Sims'', an adult Sim without a refrigerator can also satisfy hunger on their home lot by cooking food on a [[barbecue]].
Line 19:
Of course, if a Sim's hunger meter reaches zero, the Sim [[Death|dies]] of starvation. Therefore, it is essential that it does not reach zero. Sims will inform the player if they are hungry, usually by refusing to do tasks, or becoming extremely grumpy. In ''[[The Sims 3]]'', they will receive a hungry moodlet. [[Baby|Babies]] will be taken away by the [[social worker]] before they starve to death. In ''The Sims 2'' and ''The Sims 3'', [[toddler]]s, and [[child]]ren will also be taken away by the social worker before they can starve.

If the Sim is outside or is pregnant, the timer resets to 7 hours.

===Thirst===
 
For [[Vampire#The Sims 3|Vampires]] in ''[[The Sims 3: Late Night]]'', the equivalent of Hunger is "'''Thirst'''". This motive is filled by drinking [[Plasma]], the Sim-equivalent of blood. They can get plasma by draining [[Sim]]s, from Plasma Fruit, which is a new plant, or by snacking on Plasmapacks.<ref>[[The Sims 3: Late Night/twitter|Twitterview with Grant Rodiek]]</ref> Similar to death by [[starvation]], Vampires can [[Death#The_Sims_3The Sims 3:_Late_Night Late Night|die by thirst]]. The ghost of a Vampire who dies in this way is red, with a pulsing red light beating where the heart would be. The image on the tombstone is that of a bat and the stone itself has a slight red tinge.
