|QuestionText=Hello, I was hoping to clarify something. For characters using the kitchens, how creative could they get with recipes? Is it similar to anything they'd find on a Betty Crocker recipe? For drinks like tea and coffee, would it be limited to a brand/type, or are more types like oolong available?

|AnswerText=Good questions! The things available in the kitchens are all of the ingredients needed to whip up any of those Betty Crocker atrocities, plus plenty of other basic ingredients/condiments, with a leaning toward non-perishable or tinned foods. Drink-wise, there are tea bags, coffee, milk, juice, soda—the list goes on. We won't be super particular about this: it could be that on an off chance, your character finds the precise thing they needed to make a specific dish on one day, but they don't have it on another!<br><br>It'd be easier to dictate what <i>isn't</i> available in there, even though it's not like they have top-of-the-line luxury ingredients in there to begin with. In Karteria, seafood is at a shortage despite being located right on the water... which means that the seafood you find on food items in the Valentia come from a tin, and they loudly proclaim being a fake fish product. Most meat in general is either canned, cured, or ground. There are no specialty meats. A bit peculiar that those are the only limits: veggies and fruits seem to be at least present, even more perishable ones like lettuce or raspberries. They're not super abundant though.
