Usage

Cooking

Main article: Cooking

There are a variety of recipes requiring a bowl, which can be seen in the Crafting section below. Recipe Ingredients can only be created in a bowl, and a bowl is required to make cake batter, which is then used to make cake. A bowl can be used to separate soup, stew, pasta or rice, which will ultimately reduce more hunger, sadness and boredom.

Rain

If left outside, a bowl can be filled with water while it is raining, producing a bowl of water. A bowl can be filled with water from any water source, however the water may be tainted if it isn't taken from a clean source. If the water is tainted it should be boiled first, as consuming tainted water will make the player sick.
