Kibble is a kind of animal feed.
Acquisition
Pemmican can be cooked at a Butcher spot or Butcher table. A batch of kibble requires 1 unit of nutrition from vegetarian items, and 1 unit of nutrition from meat or animal products. For example, 20 rice and 20 insect meat are sufficient. A completed bill requires 450 ticks (7.5 secs) and produces 50 kibble at a butcher table, but only 35 at a butcher spot.
Summary
Kibble is consumed for 0.05 nutrition per item. Kibble has 125% nutrition efficiency when produced at a butcher table, producing 2.5 nutrition per 2 nutrition from raw food.
Humans can eat kibble, but they'll get a -12 "Ate kibble" mood penalty. This is the only way for humans to eat hay. Kibble does not mask the mood penalties from eating human meat or insect meat, meaning humans will get both moodlets.
Analysis
Kibble's can allow non-warg carnivores to eat some vegetables, and herbivores to eat meat, while being more efficient than raw food. Note that meals can be eaten by both types of animals (regardless of ingredients), and are more nutrition effiecient: simple meals have 180% efficiency, and pemmican has 160% efficiency.
However, kibble has its unique advantages:
- Nutrition:
- Kibble allows use of hay - haygrass is the plant with the highest yield per day, but cannot be turned into meals.
- In regular soil: hay turned into kibble is slightly worse for nutrition/tile/day than rice turned into simple meals, and slightly better than rice turned into pemmican. Rice surpasses hay from rich soil, but hay will always be better for nutrition per work.
- Animals will eat an entire meal, even if they would overeat. Kibble and pemmican only satiate 0.05 nutrition/item, so overeating is greatly reduced with either.
- For example, a chicken can only store 0.3 nutrition in their sotmach; they would consume 5-6 kibble when hungry, but a full meal every time. The smaller an animal is, the larger the effect of overeating (minimal effect at size >= 1).
- Logistic:
- Kibble can be used for animal training, unlike meals.
- Kibble never spoils, so you don't have to worry about it going bad from non-refrigeration.
- Kibble requires substantially less work time than other recipes, and can be done at a butcher's table rather than requiring a fueled/powered kitchen.
- Since there is no chance for food poisoning, producing kibble is a safe way to train a no/low skill cook.
