Moderator note: this thread was originally posted by TeckXKnight. As he's been MIA for a bit, players should know who to contact if they have any information about guides that have become defunct, new ones to add, or questions that don't necessarily need a thread. I'm not trying to take credit for Tech's work, only make sure the players here know who they can reliably contact about any issues.
This is a compilation of unofficial guides and information threads available for H&H made by the community.

Re: H&H Guides
Simply for archival purposes, I've leaving old, removed links here. Someone may want to use them as a basis for a new guide. In some cases, they're here simply to see if the anyone is still using them. If anyone thinks a link needs to be moved to the "b" team of this sticky because it's too dated, PM me. (Note: I'm leaving Sevenless's guide up as it is still the only comprehensive new player introduction we have.)
zebratul's Eating & Leveling Up Stats Guide
http://www.havenandhearth.com/forum/vie ... 42&t=50538 Nearly everything has had some sort of update or change to it. Some of the basic ideas are still the same, but the specifics are so dated they aren't relevant without a major rewrite.
mamotromico's Food/Curio Information Sheet
http://www.havenandhearth.com/forum/vie ... 42&t=42419 No longer updated that I can tell; see the RoB wiki or one of the other more frequently updated tools for food and curio information
Colin500's Food Variations Google Drive
