Parsley is a fresh herb used as a spice in cooking. It has almost no food value on its own. Its worth is in the kitchen, where it seasons more dishes than most herbs.
As a spice it does not count toward the ingredient limit of a dish. Fresh parsley spoils within about a week, but it can be dried to keep. It is found wild, grown on a farm from Parsley Seeds, and sometimes found in restaurant fridges. The best occupations for herbs are the Fishing Guide and the Park Ranger. Each starts with the same Foraging skill.
Eating
Eating fresh parsley lowers hunger by only 1. It holds almost no calories. Its place is in a cooked dish rather than on its own.
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
Parsley is a spice. It can season Stir Fry, Pizza, an Omelette, Pasta, Rice, Salad, a Sandwich, Stew, Soup, Bread, Toast, a Burger, a Hot Dog, a Burrito or a Taco. In each it adds 1 hunger.
Because it is a spice, it does not use up one of the ingredient slots in a dish. It can be added on top of a full pot of soup or stew.
Fresh parsley can be dried with the Dry Parsley recipe. Dried parsley seasons nearly the same dishes and keeps much longer.
These dishes take the Parsley as an ingredient, with the hunger it restores in each.

Farming
Parsley grows from Parsley Seeds. A plant takes about 20 days to grow and gives 4 to 6 bunches at harvest. The sowing season runs from February to April, and March is the best month to plant. Parsley planted from June to January does poorly.

Storage
Fresh parsley stays fresh for 6 days and is rotten by day 10. A fridge slows both counts. Drying it is the better way to keep a harvest.
Locations
Parsley is a rare find in loot. Restaurant kitchen fridges hold it now and then, and a fridge in a house can turn one up. Growing it from seed or picking it wild is far more reliable.

Notes
- As a spice, parsley never takes an ingredient slot in a dish.
- Parsley seasons more dishes than oregano, including rice and sandwiches.
- Dry a harvest to keep it, since fresh parsley rots within 10 days.
- Plant in March for the best crop.
