Wasabi is a fiery green paste used as a spice in cooking. It seasons a wide range of savoury dishes, from soups and stews to burgers and pasta. Eating it on its own leaves the character very thirsty.
Wasabi spoils within a few days, so it is best used soon after it is found. It turns up mostly in sushi restaurant kitchens. 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
Eating wasabi straight lowers hunger by 10 but raises thirst by 20. That thirst cost makes it a poor snack, especially when clean water is short.
Used as a cooking ingredient, wasabi leaves its downsides behind. A small amount seasons a whole meal, which is a far better use than eating it plain.
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
Wasabi counts as a spice. A spice sits outside the dish's ingredient limit, so it seasons a meal on top of the main ingredients. It goes into Soup, Stew, Pie, Stir Fry, Burger, Salad, Rice, Pasta and Sandwich, adding 1 hunger to each.
That long list makes wasabi a flexible seasoning for almost any savoury pot.
These dishes take the Wasabi as an ingredient, with the hunger it restores in each.
