Sesame Oil is a bottle of cooking oil pressed from sesame seeds. It weighs 0.2 and keeps for good in its packaging. It is a condiment, not a meal.
In cooking, it counts as a spice. It adds flavour to stir fries, rice, pasta, salads, burgers and sandwiches without using an ingredient slot.
Sesame Oil is a common find in Chinese restaurant kitchens. It cannot be frozen. The Chef is the best occupation for ingredients. It starts with the most Cooking skill. The Burger Flipper also starts with some Cooking skill.
Eating
Drinking Sesame Oil on its own is a bad idea. It raises unhappiness by 50 and makes the character very thirsty. It does lower hunger by 10 and holds 120 calories, all from fat.
The oil is far better used as a cooking ingredient. Added to a dish as a spice, it brings flavour without the penalties of eating it straight.
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.
