Notes
A simple cooked meal with balanced carb and vitamin content, Topped Porridge provides a moderate 700 calories with no fat. It is a mid-tier food that competes for stomach space alongside other options; for the best skill-point gain, pair it with fatty or protein-rich foods to keep all four nutrients roughly even, as the balance modifier multiplies your XP rate up to 2×. Since it spoils in 72 hours, craft it in quantities you will eat before it goes bad.
