Canned Carrots (Open) is a tin of sliced carrots that has been opened and is ready to eat. On its own it is a light snack that also eases thirst a little. Its better use is as a cooking ingredient for soups, stews, pies, rice and pasta.
An open can spoils quickly. The carrots stay fresh for 2 days and are fully rotten by day 4. The can comes from opening a sealed can of Canned Carrots with a Can Opener or a sharp blade.
Eating
Eating the whole can lowers hunger by 12 and thirst by 4. It holds only 10.5 calories, along with 28 grams of carbohydrates. That makes the carrots a poor choice for keeping body weight up. They fill the stomach a little without adding much energy.
The carrots are good hot. Heating the can before eating gives a small mood lift. Eating them cold is safe, so the can works as a quick snack on the move.
Among open canned vegetables, carrots are one of the lightest meals. Canned Tomato (Open) also lowers hunger by 12 but eases thirst by 8. Canned Corn (Open) and Canned Peas (Open) lower hunger by 16. Canned Potato (Open) lowers it by 18.
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.

Storage
The carrots stay fresh for 2 days after the can is opened. They are fully rotten by day 4. A fridge slows both counts down. As the carrots go stale and then rotten, their good effects turn bad. The sealed can keeps without spoiling, so it is best to open one only when it will be used that day.
Notes
- Open a can of carrots only when it will be eaten or cooked that day.
- The carrots add twice as much hunger to a soup or stew as to a salad or sandwich.
- Heat the carrots before eating, as they are good hot.
- Eating the carrots leaves an empty tin can behind.
