Food is anything that is edible and may sustain
a creature when it is eaten. Not all food may be
obtained in all locations. For instance, many fruits
trees only grow where it is warm. Even then, not all
foods are available during all seasons. Even though
it seems as though there are a variety of foods, the
daily staple of most peasants is a loaf of bread, and
their diet seldom varies. Foods may be combined
and cooked according to recipes (see Chap. 6: Sociality).
Despite the many forms of food available in
nature, most peasants starve. Eating should only be
done to replenish the body. Overeating results from
intemperance, which is a vice (see Chap. 4: Disposition).
Fruit is considered a delicacy. It is dried and
preserved for the winter months, or used in the production
of fruit wines, of which grapes are the most
popular. Following are descriptions of each food:
Blackberry: This fruit is purplish-black in
color and is picked and eaten. Even though they
taste great, blackberries are rarely grown in gardens.
Bread, loaf: This is a food made of a dough
of flour or meal from grain with added liquid, shortening,
and a leavening agent. The dough is kneaded,
shaped, allowed to rise, and baked. The darker the
bread, the healthier and cheaper it is.
Broccoli: This is a branching plant that
grows about 2 feet high with edible green heads and
thick stems.
