Canned Evaporated Milk is a sealed tin of long life milk that keeps without spoiling. It is a baking and drink ingredient as much as a food. The milk is rich in energy and eases thirst as well as hunger. It opens with a Can Opener or a sharp blade.
Once opened, the can becomes Canned Evaporated Milk (Open). The milk can be drunk as it is or added to cakes, sweet pies, pancakes, oatmeal, fruit salad and hot drinks. Canned Evaporated Milk is most often found in bakeries, donut shops and break rooms.
Eating
The milk is drunk once the can is open. The opened can lowers hunger by 10 and thirst by 10. It holds 472 calories, split evenly between 23.6 grams each of carbohydrates, protein and fat. That is a lot of energy for how little it fills, which makes it useful for gaining weight.
Compared with other cans, the milk is light on hunger but heavy on calories. Canned Spaghetti Bolognese (Open) lowers hunger by 24 and holds 540 calories. Canned Fruit Beverage (Open) eases thirst far more but holds 250 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

Storage
A sealed can of evaporated milk keeps without spoiling, so it can wait on a shelf for as long as needed. Once opened, the milk stays fresh for 4 days and is fully rotten by day 7. A fridge slows both counts down. The milk never freezes, so a fridge is the right place for an open can.
