Barbecue Sauce is a bottle of sauce used as a spice in cooking. It weighs 0.2 and is used a little at a time. A splash adds flavour to sandwiches, burgers, tacos and rice or pasta dishes.

The bottle never spoils, so it can sit on a shelf for as long as needed. It is a common find in fast food kitchens, butcher shops and general stores. The Chef is the best occupation for ingredients. It starts with the most Cooking skill. The Burger Flipper also starts with some Cooking skill.

Eating


Barbecue Sauce is meant for cooking. Drinking the full bottle straight raises unhappiness by 30. It lowers hunger by 20 and holds 980 calories, all of it from carbohydrates.

That calorie count could help a starving character put on weight in an emergency. The mood cost is heavy, though. Adding the sauce to food is a far better use.

Balsamic Vinegar works the same way but is harsher. Its full bottle raises unhappiness by 50 and holds 1250 calories.

The table shows the game figures for one serving. Negative hunger and thirst fill the character up, and negative unhappiness and boredom cheer them up.

Cooking


Barbecue Sauce counts as a spice. A spice sits outside a dish's ingredient limit, so it can be added to a full dish.

Each splash adds 2 hunger to a Sandwich, a Burger, Rice, Pasta, a Taco or a Burrito. The Cooking skill makes each ingredient go further in an evolved dish.

These dishes take the Barbecue Sauce as an ingredient, with the hunger it restores in each.

Storage


The bottle keeps indefinitely at room temperature. It cannot be frozen, so it belongs on a shelf rather than in a freezer.

Notes


  • Use Barbecue Sauce as a spice rather than drinking it, since a full bottle raises unhappiness by 30.
  • As a spice, it can top off a dish that already has its full set of ingredients.
  • Keep the bottle on a shelf, since it cannot be frozen.
  • Fast food kitchens and general stores are the best places to find a bottle.
