Dried Mushroom Quiche

Dried Mushroom Quiche is a dehydrated food item produced from Mushroom Quiche. It is created in a Dehydrator, which converts 6000 kcal of Mushroom Quiche and 12 kg Plastic into 6 units of Dried Mushroom Quiche and 6 kg Water. It can later be processed in a Rehydrator to turn 1 unit of Dried Mushroom Quiche and 1 kg Water back into rehydrated Mushroom Quiche.

Like other dried rations, Dried Mushroom Quiche is primarily a storage and transport form of its source meal rather than a direct upgrade. Its main value is that it lets players compress cooked food into a shelf-stable item, then restore it later when water is available.

• Each dehydrator batch preserves the full food value of the original quiche while splitting it into multiple units.
• The process returns water instead of discarding it, so the conversion is effectively a food-and-water exchange rather than a one-way loss.
• Rehydration restores Mushroom Quiche rather than creating a new food type, making the item part of a reversible processing loop.
• Because the recipe requires Plastic, production is tied to mid- to late-game industrial supply chains.
