Canned Tomato (Open) is a tin of tomatoes that has been opened and is ready to eat. It is a light snack that eases thirst, and it is one of the most flexible cooking ingredients in a can. It goes into pizzas, soups, stews, pies, stir fries, pasta and much more.

The open tomatoes stay fresh for 2 days and are fully rotten by day 4. The can comes from opening a sealed can of Canned Tomato with a Can Opener or a sharp blade.

Eating

Eating the whole can lowers hunger by 12 and thirst by 8. It holds 90 calories, with 18 grams of carbohydrates and 3 grams of protein. That makes it a poor food for keeping body weight up.

The tomatoes are good hot. Heating the can before eating gives a small mood lift. They are safe to eat cold as well.

Among open canned vegetables, the tomatoes are light on hunger but strong on thirst. Canned Carrots (Open) also lowers hunger by 12 but eases thirst by only 4. Canned Potato (Open) lowers hunger by 18 and thirst by 7. Canned Corn (Open) lowers hunger by 16 and holds 315 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.

Storage

The tomatoes 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 tomatoes go stale and then rotten, their good effects turn bad. The sealed can keeps without spoiling, so it is best opened only when it will be used that day.
