So, consumables are either the plant-looking things that drop from trees and some enemies or loot chests.
The way I did this was to use Lucky on Difficulty 3. Lucky starts off with 100% luck, which doubles the consumable drop rate, and difficulty 3 has a horde on stage 12, which I found very helpful. I think I picked up between 35 and 40 in this stage alone.
Drops are sparse in the early stages but keep pumping points into luck and if possible grab a garden or two and/or increase the number of trees that spawn.
This popped for me at Stage 17, by which time my luck was 270.
Edit: If you can get multiple Pruner weapons, each one of these will also spawn a garden (thanks, TREX1979)

ALSO - use the weapon PRUNES as they spawn a garden for each weapon so DO NOT combine them as I was able to get it on danger 0 by lvl 15

This achievement requires you to collect 250 of those health pickups in a single run (obviously Endless doesn't count). The health pickups can drop from enemies sometimes, and will always drop from trees. However, the best way to do this is to start a run as the character Lucky and pick the Pruner as your melee weapon. Each Pruner spawns a garden that drops a consumable every 15 seconds. So, go for six Pruners during your run and upgrade them so they drop consumables more often. On top of that, keep pumping up your Luck stat. It starts very high, and the higher it is, the more likely enemies are to drop consumables when killed. I played on Danger 2 to increase enemies and ensure I got this achievement, and with Lucky, six Pruners (of varying levels), tons of Luck stat, a couple items that increased tree spawns, I got this achievement during Wave 11. So, it seems reasonable you don't need to play on Danger 2 to get this.
One nice thing to note is that you don't need to worry about picking up every single consumable on screen when they drop. When a wave ends, all consumables on screen get sucked into you and counted, so you don't ever have to worry about missing any.
