Canned Dog Food (Open) is a tin of pet food that has been opened and is ready to eat. It is the most filling canned food, but eating it plain makes a character very unhappy. It works better as a stew ingredient or as fishing chum.
The open food stays fresh for 5 days and is fully rotten by day 7. The can comes from opening a sealed can of Canned Dog Food with a Can Opener or a sharp blade.
Eating
Eating the whole can lowers hunger by 30. It holds 498 calories, mostly from 77.56 grams of carbohydrates. It also carries 16.04 grams of protein and 12.58 grams of fat. On filling power and energy alone, it is a strong meal.
The problem is mood. A can eaten plain adds 50 unhappiness. That is five times the hit from Canned Beans (Open), which adds 10. Among open canned foods, dog food tops the hunger chart. Canned Vegetable Soup (Open) lowers hunger by 25. Canned Corned Beef (Open) lowers it by 24 but holds 720 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.
| Item | Hunger | Calories | Carbs | Protein | Fat | Unhappiness |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Canned Dog Food (Open) | -30 | 498 | 77.56 | 16.04 | 12.58 | 50 |
Cooking
An open can of dog food cooks in 10 minutes in an oven, a microwave or over a fire. It burns after 30 minutes.
The food adds 15 hunger to a Stew, cooked or not. For a Burger, a Burrito or a Sandwich it must be cooked first, and then it adds 10. A cooked can adds 5 to a Taco. Folding dog food into a dish is one way to use its calories without eating it plain.
An open can adds 30 to chum for fishing. That is three times what Canned Corn (Open) adds.
These dishes take the Canned Dog Food (Open) as an ingredient, with the hunger it restores in each.

| Stew | 15 | - |

Storage
The food stays fresh for 5 days after the can is opened. It is fully rotten by day 7. That is longer than most opened canned foods, which last 2 to 3 days. A fridge slows both counts down. As the food goes stale and then rotten, its good effects turn bad.
