A Jar of Broccoli is a sealed glass jar of pickled broccoli. It is a way to keep a broccoli harvest long after the fresh heads would rot. A full jar weighs 0.8.
The jar has to be opened before the broccoli can be eaten. Opening it gives a Jar of Broccoli (Open), which lowers hunger by 45. That matches the 5 fresh heads of Broccoli that went into it.
Jars are made with the Make Jar of Preserved Food recipe. Sealed jars also turn up in survivor caches, farm houses and home fridges.
Eating
A sealed jar has to be opened first. The Open Jar of Preserved Food recipe opens it and gives a Jar of Broccoli (Open).
The opened jar lowers hunger by 45. It holds only 55 calories, with 10 grams of carbohydrates and 4.5 grams of protein. That is very filling for its energy, so it does little to keep weight up.
A single fresh Broccoli lowers hunger by 9 and holds 11 calories. The jar keeps the full value of 5 heads in one item.
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.
| Item | Hunger | Calories | Carbs | Protein | Fat |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jar of Broccoli | -45 | 55 | 10 | 4.5 | 0.5 |
Cooking
The Make Jar of Preserved Food recipe fills one jar with 5 Broccoli. It also needs an empty Jar, a Jar Lid, 2 units of vinegar, salt, a little water and a knife, which is kept. The recipe must be learned first.
A freshly filled jar has to be cooked to seal it. It cooks in 60 minutes and burns after 120. Cooking turns a jar that keeps for a month into one that keeps for years.

Storage
An uncooked jar stays fresh for 30 days and is fully rotten by day 60. Once cooked, the jar stays fresh for 730 days and rots only after 1560. Jars found as loot are already cooked and sealed.
Fresh Broccoli stays fresh for only 4 days. Jarring is the best way to save a broccoli crop.
Locations
Sealed jars of broccoli are an uncommon find. Survivor food caches and survivor crates are the likeliest spots. Farm house counters hold them now and then. Safehouse fridges and house fridges turn one up on occasion. Garages, closets, attics, kitchens and storage units can hide a jar, but only rarely.

Notes
- Cook every jar after filling it, or it keeps for only 30 days.
- Open the jar only when the broccoli will be eaten soon, since opened jars spoil fast.
- The empty Jar comes back after eating, ready to fill again.
- Broccoli rots in 4 days fresh, so jar a harvest quickly.
