Crackers are a packaged dry snack that keeps without spoiling. They are light at 0.1 weight and give a modest amount of energy. They can be eaten straight from the box or crumbled into soup and stew.
Their long shelf life makes them a steady part of an emergency stash. Crackers are found on grocery shelves, in home kitchens and in hidden food caches.
Eating
Eating Crackers lowers hunger by 5. They hold 70 calories, with 12 grams of carbohydrates, 6 grams of fat and 1 gram of protein. That is a small snack rather than a meal.
Their strength is that they never spoil. A box can sit in a bag for a long time and still be good to eat.
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.
