Campfire Roast
The uneven flame might be mediocre for cooking, but the open flame imparts a great flavor.
Notes
The Campfire Roast is an early-game cooked food item produced at a campfire, providing 1,000 calories with 16 protein and 12 fat but no carbs or vitamins. Because its nutrient profile is heavily unbalanced (zero carbs and vitamins), eating it alone yields only the minimum ×0.5 nutrition modifier, making it a poor choice for maximizing your skill-point gain rate. For best results, pair Campfire Roast with carb-rich and vitamin-rich foods — such as berries or bread — to bring your stomach’s nutrient balance closer to even and boost the XP multiplier from your diet.
