Meat Stock
A meaty stock made from the flesh of animals.
Notes
Meat Stock is a middle-tier cooking ingredient made by simmering animal flesh, providing 600 calories and a moderate nutrient blend of 8 protein, 9 fat, and 3 carbs with no vitamins. Its nutrient total of 20 supports the food-quality loop, but because its vitamins are zero, it cannot contribute to the balanced-diet ×2 multiplier on its own — pair Meat Stock with a vitamin-rich ingredient in a recipe like Simmered Meat to improve your overall nutrition balance and skill-point gain rate. Store it properly, as its 72-hour shelf life means stockpiling without a fridge will lead to spoilage.
