What's a good early game food to look for?

Currently I just run around and get eggs (rarely) or fiddleheads which are not very nutritious.

I've found advice online to eat pine nuts from pinecones but it seems that recipe no longer exists.

I'm about to run out of protein rations, what is the best option for replacing those? Fiddleheads and eggs probably aren't going to cut it.

Oh, trying to draw zombies away from groups to thin their numbers, something I do to get a foothold in a new area if I arrive at day time to explore.

You do get big hordes in the cities and towns and it is a lot harder to do later in the game but you can also separate groups by drawing a few off the group at a time to weaken the group.

So i guess make use of the zombies sight and smell senses and pull a few zombies at a time than trying to kill a whole lot of zombies at one
