DO NOT EAT ANY FOOD WITHOUT EATING SINK FOOD FIRST!
IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT SINK FOOD IS, ASK!!!
Note: On 17-Apr-2018 a change was made to the way butter acts as a base.
Note: See Discussion page for recipes that do nothing to coordinate research.
IMPORTANT : READ ME FIRST
All ingredients gain potency over time and lose potency whenever time they are eaten as the first course in a meal. This holds true for everyone, everywhere. Somehow ingredients are psychic and know if someone's nibbled them halfway across Egypt.
For this reason, if you see a recipe you like you must ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS eat what is called a sink food first.
A sink food is a set of ingredients that a) are easy to obtain and b) nobody minds if they have no effect on your stats.
To use a sink food successfully just prepare a meal with the sink food recipe, eat it, then eat your desired recipe while your stats are still under the effect of the sink food. The sink food stats will be overwritten and the new stats will take effect. But more importantly your meal will not decrease the effectiveness of the ingredients for everyone else int he game.
Current Sink Food
6:1 Camel Meat, Honey. Sink food... Eat before you eat any other meal to help preserve the potency of other ingredients.
If you have more honey than camel meat, then do 6 honey, 1 camel meat. (still 6:1)
