 Cooking in ATITD is great. It gives you stats! Who doesn't want to be able to run faster, carry more, or get more from a hookah? ''Everyone'' should be able to do it.
-People who want to learn to cook are most commonly referred to the [[Recipes]] page for example recipes, and to the famous [https://atitd.wiki/tale9/Cooking_Tutorial_with_Ariella_and_Pascalito Ariella and Pascalito's Cooking Tutorial] to learn about how recipes work and to learn how to craft your own. People who excel at cooking in ATITD are typically very involved in the science and maths of food ingredients and their combinations, and we all owe a debt of gratitude to chefs like this. Without them, we would have no food and would long ago have starved to death (while running very slowly.)

 But for the Dummy Cook, creating recipes is not cooking; creating recipes is advanced wizardry. ''Cooking'' is throwing some food in a pot to make a meal. In other words, to make an omelette, I don't need to know the science of an egg's albumin breakdown; I just need to know that for a country omelette, I hardly stir my eggs in the pan at all, and for a classic French omelette, I stir them almost constantly as they cook.

 Sink food works on exactly the same 7 debens per serving math as regular food.
-<s>The cheapest, easiest sink food is made from nothing but camel meat and honey. Both are plentiful and easily obtained. Interestingly, it doesn't matter what proportion you mix them in; if you want 37 servings of sink food, you can mix 258 camel and 1 honey, or 258 honey and 1 camel, or 130 of one and 129 of the other. The only thing that matters is that the two amounts not be exactly the same. (Why? Because the science we're not looking at says so.)</s>

	If you enjoy cooking, it is worth it to get to [[Gastronomy]] 7. This skill will let you examine a cooked dish with a new "Critically Evaluate this Food" option when you click your kitchen. This will give you all the stats on your food and also tell you how long it will last. For reasons I don't understand because I am not a wizard, old recipes on the wiki are now more potent, so you may actually be getting better time or better stats increases than the ones listed for what you're cooking.

 These serving calculations become complicated for those of us who are math challenged and are trying to figure out "OK, I know I'm only using a set number of additives, but how much of each base do I need in order to make 10 servings? Or 50? or 300?" or whatever your goal is. Luckily, there is a calculator.
