Corn
A warmly colored kernel studded vegetable.
Notes
Corn is a basic crop grown from seed that provides moderate nutrition, with carbs, vitamins, and protein but no fat, making it a useful ingredient for balancing a varied diet when paired with fatty or protein-rich foods. It is a common raw food used in many early-to-mid game recipes such as cornmeal, corn ethanol, and baked corn, and also appears in basic and advanced research papers. As a compostable crop with a 96-hour shelf life, it fits well into a farming rotation and can be sold or stored to support cooking and industrial crafting chains.
