Cereal Germ is a by-product of milling that provides 20 calories and a balanced spread of carbs, protein, fat, and vitamins (3–7 each) when eaten, making it a decent early-game ingredient for improving your diet's balance and thus your skill-point gain rate. It is produced when milling grains into cornmeal, flour, or rice flour, and can be further processed into Oil. Since it spoils in 96 hours, store it in a pantry or sell it promptly rather than letting it expire on your shelf.

Eating doesn't change a food's calories or nutrition — those are fixed. What your diet changes is your skill-gain rate (XP). This estimates the rate this food's nutrients contribute. ≈ estimate; set your diet in the ⚙ Character panel.
The descriptive prose on this wiki is written by a large language model — but it runs entirely on local, self-hosted hardware: a Gemma 4 E4B model on a single NVIDIA RTX 4070 in a home Unraid server.
Nothing you read here was generated by a commercial cloud API. The game data itself is pulled live from the Eco server; the AI only fills in flavor and gap text. Like any web server, this one keeps its own request log — including visitors' IP addresses — purely to run and improve the site; it is never sold or handed to a third party.
This wiki is one face of a larger Eco mod: Solomon, an in-world AI steward that runs the server's economy, posts help contracts, keeps a store, and answers players. The wiki reads the same live game registries and tools Solomon does — so the numbers stay true to the running world. Read more about the project →
