How to unlock the Upgraded Every Pouch Type achievement in Horizon Forbidden West - Definitive Guide
The description is pretty straight forward as is the process (collect the right upgrade elements and then upgrade your pouch at a workbench). What I will comment on is the Food Pouch specifically as I have seen people refer to the trophy as being 'buggy' when they see 4/5 on their progress.
Very early in the game you will have a quest that introduces food. You will get an option to obtain some from the chef after completing it. If you're like me, you may have passed on buying food and as a result, you will not see the food pouch in your inventory.
You will see the pouch and be able to upgrade it (assuming you have the upgrade items required) once you have purchased some food.
Hope this helps anyone frustrated that they have upgraded every pouch they see in their inventory but feel stuck on where to get the food pouch.

Thanks for this - I remember doing a quest relating to food but it wasn’t something I’d paid attention to since and it was only after upgrading all the other pouches I have and still not popping the trophy that I’ve come here and read this. Thumbs up from me!

To unlock this trophy you need to upgrade every pouch type once, all of which is easily possible to do before you leave The Daunt - as all the animals and items you need are home to that region. The campfire and the woods south of the Redhew Quarry has squirrels, boars, jays and raccoons, everything you need to upgrade your pouches to the next level.
The exception to that rule is the food pouch, you first need to acquire it. So, when you have a free minute, head to Chainscrape and do the chef’s errand, A Dash of Courage. Milduf will be stood cooking in the middle of the tavern and require you to gather 5 wild meats, 3 Bitter Leafs and go to a Scrounger site.
When you’ve finished it and returned to him, respeak to him after the quest is done to get your free meal (and thus you’ll food pouch will appear when you visit the workbench, and then you can upgrade it). You could probably wait until later and just buy it from a cook elsewhere in the west, but this is the quickest way. Plus: XP and a free meal!
As for upgrading the food pouch, you’ll have to venture out into the next region for that one, I’m afraid. You’ll find foxes all over the place south of Plainsong. Super south of the Cinnabar Sands Tallneck, in the hills north of the river is a specific spot to find them though if you need more guidance. Here’s what you need to unlock this trophy.
Food:
Level 1 - 25 Shards & 1 Fox Hide
Potion:
Level 1 - 25 Shards & 2 Squirrel Hides
Resource:
Level 1 - 25 Shards & 2 Boar Hides
Trap:
Level 1 - 25 Shards & 1 Squirrel Bone
Any ammo:
Light arrow:
Level 1 - 25 Shards & 2 Jay Feathers
Hunter Arrow Quiver:
Level 1 - 25 Shards & 2 Raccoon Hide
Tripwire pouch:
Level 1 - 25 Shards & 1 Jay Wishbone
Bomb Satchel:
Level 1 - 25 Shards & 1 Boar Bone
