A Taco is a filled taco shell. Ready made tacos are filling and cheer the character up. Tacos can also be built from a Taco Shell with meat, vegetables and sauces.
A taco spoils within a few days, so it should be eaten soon. Ready made tacos turn up in house fridges. A home made taco starts from a Taco Shell. The Chef is the best occupation for cooked and prepared. It starts with the most Cooking skill. The Burger Flipper also starts with some Cooking skill.
Eating
A ready made Taco lowers hunger by 25 and lowers unhappiness by 10. It holds 400 calories, with 80 grams of carbohydrates, 32 grams of protein and 28 grams of fat. That is a rich, filling meal at a weight of 0.3.
A home made taco starts at the values of a plain shell, which lowers hunger by 5. Each ingredient then adds its own value. The finished taco depends on what goes in.
Its good effects turn bad as it starts to spoil.
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.
