If you want your dwarves to gain skill as cooks you should only prepare easy meals, since this gives them the most practice per ingredient used.
Is this still true? I find I level far faster with lavish meals. --Shades 14:41, 20 November 2007 (EST)

It says that cooked meals are "not subject to wear", but also that meals left in the kitchen "may rot". Which is correct? -- ToxicFrog
- wear and rot are different things. wear is the x and X's next to it, where its still edible. rot happens instantly, spews miasma everywhere, and the meal is instantly inedible. -Chariot 04:22, 15 March 2008 (EDT)
- Although i doubt that prep meals can either wear or rot, unless outside or in water. Maybe they rot in the kitchen but not on a stockpile? --Koltom 09:46, 15 March 2008 (EDT)
- Correct. Meals left in a kitchen will rot. Meals dropped on ground magically marked as "Food stockpile" will be preserved for eternity.--Shadow archmagi 10:02, 15 March 2008 (EDT)

Shells[edit]
Does cooking turtles etc. destroy the shell in the same way cooking plants destroys seeds? --Juckto 19:11, 16 May 2008 (EDT)
- Yes. If you want to make sure you have shells, turn off the "Cook" permission for turtle in the Kitchen menu. --Sublight 04:56, 27 May 2008 (EDT)
