Dried Fish
Leaving it outdoors somehow made it more digestible.
Notes
Dried Fish is a preserved protein-rich food produced via the Dry Fish recipe, offering 450 calories with a heavy protein focus (16 protein, 1 carb, 2 fat) and no vitamins. Because its nutrient profile is highly unbalanced, eating it alone yields the lowest ×0.5 balance modifier for your XP rate—pair it with carb, fat, and vitamin sources for a balanced diet. It also serves as an ingredient for crafting Basic Fish Culinary Research Papers, so stockpile some for research progression rather than eating all of it.
