What does Numbers 20:5 mean?

'Why did you make us leave Egypt and bring us to this awful place? There's no grain, no figs, no grapes, no pomegranates, and not even any water to drink.' Numbers 20:5 - Modern Text Bible

(Their complaints focus on what they lack. They remember Egypt as better, even though it was a place of slavery. Their hunger and thirst distort their memories.)
