Level Up (A5E) I'm worried that Create Water will break my party's cleric.

All nonmagical food and drink within a 5-foot-radius sphere centered on a point of your choice within range is purified and rendered free of poison and disease.

It isn't fully clear to me, though, what it means for the food and drink to be nonmagical. "It cannot have been magically created??" Or just, "It cannot itself possess magical properties?"

This is errata -- the spell creates 10 gallons of non-potable water, but no Supply.

When was that errataed? The AG I have marked _v2a has:

"Create Water: You fill the target with up to 10 gallons of nonpotable water or 1 Supply of clean water. Alternatively, the water falls as rain that extinguishes exposed flames in the area."

You'd need to read the description of purify food and drink.

I like the double wombo combo option of creating supply with multiple 1st level spells. Is it spelled out somewhere how much non-potable water can be turned into supply? IE: If I have a 10 gallon bucket from Create or Destroy water, how many times can I cast Purify Food and Drink on it to gain maximum supply? That's probably super edge casey but what I'm getting at is the equivalency of water = supply from Create or Destroy Water anywhere else as reference?

I would assume its errata to the printed versions.

If you read those two spells (with the note from above that C/D Water does not create 1 Supply) the answer is 0 times.

When was that errataed?

Today at 6.07pm UK time.

What makes water non-potable besides poison and disease?

I'm not sure I see the relevance of the question, since purify food and drink needs to be cast on Supply and create or destroy water doesn't create Supply.

What makes water non-potable besides poison and disease?

all manner of elements . Lead, mercury, uranium, extraplanar energy, this stuff, salt, Naegleria fowleri & other parasites, various forms of industrial & agricultural runoff, etc

Gotcha. I see the distinction. Thanks!
