Bacon can be found in fridges in a pack of 5 sometimes. it will give a 20 morale boost when eaten cooked
(cause why not?)

Not to rain on your parade, but we have bacon in-game already.
You can find it if you’re playing 0.8 or one of the experimental builds.

It may be off topic, but your forum avatar photo is adorable.

We have craftable cheeseburgers.
We sort of lack the lettuce for BLTs at the moment.

Question: Why doesn’t the bacon rot? Common household bacon wouldn’t survive several days without a fridge.

Google ‘shelf stable bacon’ and you’ll see. It’s vacuum packed and cooked unto the point of ridiculousness.
Also I didn’t really want to add yet another item that’s useless two or three days after your character starts their journey.

how about spam? that stuff will last 100 years and its a pork product.
being able to make bacon is a good idea. probably needs higher butchering and cooking skill. would improve morale factor, but increase odds of a heart attack if you eat too much.
