Skinned Mouse (Dead) is a mouse carcass that has been skinned for eating. It weighs only 0.05. It is survival food for hard times rather than a pleasant meal.
Eating it raises unhappiness by 30, and it is dangerous to eat raw. Cooked into a soup or stew, it adds hunger to the pot. It comes from butchering a dead mouse with a sharp knife or meat cleaver.
A skinned mouse stays fresh for 6 days and rots by day 10. 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
A cooked Skinned Mouse lowers hunger by 10. It holds 220 calories, with about 10 grams of protein and 3 grams of fat. That is a lot of energy for such a tiny weight.
Eating it raises unhappiness by 30. That makes it a poor choice for a character who is already low. Eating it raw is dangerous and can make the character sick, so it should always be cooked.
The mouse is a small meal compared with other small game. A Skinned Rat (Dead) lowers hunger by 22. Rodent Meat lowers hunger by 15.
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 | Unhappiness |

Cooking
A Skinned Mouse cooks in 15 minutes and burns after 50. It cooks over a fire or in an oven. A microwave does a poor job with it.
It adds 10 hunger to Soup, Stew, Pie, Stir Fry, Rice and Pasta. These dishes are cooked afterwards, so a raw mouse can go straight in. Once cooked, it adds 10 to a Burger or a Salad and 5 to a Sandwich.
Putting the mouse into a dish is a good way to use it. Mixed with other ingredients, it becomes part of a larger meal.
These dishes take the Skinned Mouse (Dead) as an ingredient, with the hunger it restores in each.
