Kashk

Name	Kashk
Type	Rations
Item ID	Kurt_Entity

Kashk is a ration in Pathologic 2. Consuming it reduces hunger by 15%, but increases thirst by 10%. It can be purchased from groceries and the Broken Heart Pub, randomly obtained via Packages, or looted from containers and bodies. It can also be traded for via townsfolk.

Note that while Kashk and Eggs share identical hunger values and identical costs in stores, Eggs increase thirst by a smaller amount (3%). As such, when given the option, Eggs are an objectively better choice over kashk.
