A Meat Dumpling is a small parcel of dough filled with meat, sold as ready made food in Chinese restaurants. It can be eaten straight away or added to a soup or stew. It is very light at 0.1 weight.

The dumpling is fresh food and spoils fast. It stays fresh for only two days. It should be eaten or cooked into a dish soon after it is found.

Meat dumplings are a found item. Chinese restaurant displays and Chinese takeout boxes are where they turn up. 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

Eating a meat dumpling lowers hunger by 10. It holds only 28 calories. Its main nutrient is 15 grams of protein, with 8 grams of carbohydrates and a little fat.

The protein is the dumpling's strength. It helps a character keep muscle while eating light. The low calorie count means it does little to hold body weight up.

Against other ready made snacks, the meat dumpling is on the light side. A Meat Steam Bun lowers hunger by 15 with 35 calories. A Shrimp Dumpling lowers hunger by 15 with 120 calories. Both fill more than a meat dumpling.

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.

Cooking

The meat dumpling needs no cooking of its own. Its value in the kitchen is as an ingredient in evolved dishes.

It adds 15 hunger to a Soup or a Stew. That is more than it gives when eaten on its own. A pot of soup or stew takes up to 6 ingredients. A few dumplings with vegetables make a filling meal that lasts longer than the dumplings alone. The Cooking skill makes each ingredient go further.

These dishes take the Meat Dumpling as an ingredient, with the hunger it restores in each.
