Shark Meat

Shark Meat is a raw food item obtained by killing a Shark. It can be eaten directly or used as an ingredient in cooking.

When consumed by the player, Shark Meat applies a debuff for 4 minutes that reduces maximum health by 10. This makes it a poor choice for direct consumption in combat-heavy situations, but it still has value as cooking material and as emergency food. When eaten by NPCs, it grants +10% Happiness, making it useful for improving settlement morale.

Shark Meat spoils after 4 hours, so it should be used relatively quickly or stored with spoilage in mind.
