Canned Fruit Cocktail is a sealed tin of mixed fruit that keeps without spoiling. It is a sweet treat that lifts mood, and a handy baking ingredient. It needs a Can Opener, a Sharp Knife or a Chipped Stone to open.
Once opened, the can becomes Canned Fruit Cocktail (Open). The fruit can be eaten as it is or added to cakes, sweet pies, muffins, pancakes, oatmeal, fruit salad and ice cream cones. Canned Fruit Cocktail is a common find in grocery stores, general stores and kitchens.
Eating
The fruit is eaten once the can is open. The opened can lowers hunger by 15 and unhappiness by 10. It holds 250 calories, with 10 grams of protein and 24 grams of fat. That is a fair amount of energy for a dessert.
The mood lift is the main reason to eat it plain. A can of fruit cocktail is a good pick after a hard day. Canned Peaches (Open) and Canned Pineapple (Open) give the same hunger and mood figures. Canned Fruit Beverage (Open) matches them too and also lowers thirst by 85.
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.

The opened fruit is a sweet ingredient. It adds 15 hunger to a Cake, a sweet Pie, a Muffin, Pancakes or a Fruit Salad. It adds 5 to Oatmeal or an Ice Cream Cone. A cake or a sweet pie is a good way to stretch one can into several servings.

Storage
A sealed can of fruit cocktail keeps without spoiling, so it can wait on a shelf for as long as needed. Once opened, the fruit stays fresh for 5 days and is fully rotten by day 7. That is longer than most opened canned foods. A fridge slows both counts down.
