Frog Meat is the raw meat from a butchered frog. It is a small, lean meal and a handy ingredient for soups, stews and stir fries. Eaten raw, it can cause food sickness, so it should be cooked first.

Frog Meat keeps for a few days before it starts to turn. It comes from butchering a Frog with a knife or a meat cleaver. It can also be added to fishing chum. The Rancher is the best occupation for raw meat and fish. It starts with the most Butchering skill. The Chef and the Fishing Guide also start with some Butchering skill.

Eating

Cooked Frog Meat lowers hunger by 10. It holds 66 calories, with almost 15 grams of protein and almost no fat or carbohydrates. That is a very lean meal that does little for body weight.

It is better hot and worse cold, so it is best eaten soon after cooking. Cooking it in a microwave leaves it less pleasant to eat.

Compared with the small animals, frog meat is a modest meal. A Dead Mouse lowers hunger by the same 10 but holds 220 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

Frog Meat stays fresh for 4 days and is fully rotten by day 8. A fridge slows both counts, and a freezer slows them more. Meat that will not be cooked within a few days is best frozen. Rotten meat is a poor and risky meal.

Locations
