Oysters are a fresh shellfish that can be eaten raw or cooked into a dish. They weigh only 0.1 and are rich in protein. On their own they are a small bite, and their real value is as an ingredient in seafood dishes.

Oysters spoil very fast, within a few days. They are found mainly in seafood restaurants, fancy restaurant displays and butcher cases. They are often already sitting on a stove or a barbecue when found. 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 raw oysters lowers hunger by 5. They hold 15 calories, with 22 grams of protein and 10 grams of carbohydrates. That protein helps keep muscle while a character is losing weight.

Raw oysters carry no danger, so they are safe to eat straight from the shell. As a meal they are light, so it takes several to fill a stomach.

Compared with other shellfish, oysters are about as filling as Mussels, which also lower hunger by 5. Shrimp lower hunger by 10 and are the more filling catch.

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

Oysters cook in 10 minutes and burn after 25. Cooking them on their own adds little. The better use is adding them to a dish.

Oysters go into Pizza, Soup, Stew, Pie, Stir Fry, Rice and Pasta, adding 5 hunger to each. They can also go into a Sandwich, a Burger or a Salad, but only once cooked. Fried Oysters are a separate, ready-made version found in deep fry restaurants.

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

Pasta 5 -

Pizza 5 -

Storage

Raw oysters stay fresh for only 2 days and are rotten by day 4. A fridge slows both counts, and a freezer keeps them much longer. They should be cooked into a dish soon after they are found.

Locations

Oysters are a common find in seafood places. Fancy restaurant displays hold them most of the time. Deep fry kitchen fridges and seafood kitchen fridges are almost as reliable. Butcher display cases in supermarket kitchens and seafood kitchens carry them less often. They also turn up on barbecues, on house stoves and in kitchen freezers. Grocery store and butcher shop display cases are a smaller chance.
