Sugar

Sugar is a non-consumable raw food item. It can be produced in the Grain Mill by processing Sugar Beet or Honey, and it is used as an ingredient for cooking.

Because Sugar is a raw food rather than a finished meal, its main value comes from crafting and recipe progression rather than direct consumption. It serves as a basic processed ingredient that lets other cooking recipes be made once the required source materials have been gathered. Since it can be made from either Sugar Beet or Honey, it can fit into different resource setups depending on what your settlement has access to.

Sugar has a spoilage time of 15 hours, so it remains useful for a while before expiring. This gives it enough storage time for routine cooking use, but it is still worth keeping an eye on if you stockpile large amounts of it for later recipes.
