Food Spoilage

Almost all Food slowly perishes and turns eventually into Rot. When Food perishes below 50%, it becomes stale. When Food further perishes below 20%, it becomes spoiled.

Stage	Effect
Green (Fresh)	Restores the full amount of , and for a given food
Yellow (Stale)	Restores 2/3 of , 1/3 of for a given food and doesn't restore any
Red (Spoiled)	Restores 1/2 of for a given food, doesn't restore any and decreases by 10

• Any kind of cooked meat lasts longer than any raw meat, but any kind of raw vegetable lasts longer than any cooked vegetable.
• Food dropped on the ground will perish at a rate of 150%, while keeping it in the Ice Box will reduce the rate to 50%. At Winter the food perish rate is additionally reduced by 25%.
• The stale and spoiled effects do not apply when eaten by WX-78.
• The effects of eating stale or spoiled food are worse when playing as Wickerbottom. (how much exactly?)
• Stacked Food items share the same level of spoiling. Combining items with different spoil levels into a single stack averages the spoiled amount between them. This can be used to "save" a nearly-rotten food item, by stacking it with a fresh item, then ctrl+clicking to separate it from the rest of the stack again.
• Cooking Food on fire or in Crock Pot halves the spoiled amount of the Food.
• Tallbird Eggs, Mandrakes (raw and cooked), and Deerclops Eyeball are the only Food items which don't spoil.
