Mushroom Sandwich

[Lunch] A rich sandwich filled with sauteed pol mushrooms.

## Obtaining

### Cooking

One of the primary methods of obtaining Mushroom Sandwiches is by cooking them. The required ingredients are one Bread and one Pol Mushroom, and combining these will give you one Mushroom Sandwich. If you're a traveler, you cannot do this as you cannot cook. You'll either have to become a citizen or refer to the method below.

### Grocery Store

Another easy and reliable method of obtaining Mushroom Sandwiches is by buying them from the Grocery Store for 20 bea. This is one of the better food purchases in the game, considering the Mushroom Sandwich's Food Effects and it being a Lunchbox Item as well as the cheap price. It must be noted however that cooking Mushroom Sandwiches is cheaper than buying them.

### Receiving from Others

#### Friends

Citizens and travelers who are friends, close friends, dear friends, or family members (excluding babies) may approach you throughout the day and offer to give Mushroom Sandwiches. Accepting their offer gives you one Mushroom Sandwich and improves your relationship with whoever made the offer. You can also refuse should you not want Mushroom Sandwiches or not want to improve your relationship. **The food NPCs offer is mostly random, so if you need Mushroom Sandwiches, you should not rely on this method.**

#### Parents

If you're a child, you have the ability to ask your parents for Lunchboxes. To do this, talk to one of your parents at home and select the "Give me a Lunchbox" option. If the parent accepts, you'll receive one random Lunchbox, and there is a chance you'll receive a Mushroom Sandwich. It must be noted, much like the method above, the item you receive will be random. **You must have no Lunchboxes in your bag to do this.**

## Uses

### Eating

The primary and most common use for Mushroom Sandwiches is for them to be eaten. Because they are considered both Food and Lunchbox Items they can be eaten anywhere you go (as opposed to regular Food, which can only be eaten at home, at the tavern, or for lunch at school). Doing so will improve you speed, strength, and spirit by 10 points, but this is doubled to 20 points when eaten for breakfast or for lunch at school.

### Selling

If you were to sell a Mushroom Sandwich directly to any shop, you would receive 15 bea. Depending on how you received your Mushroom Sandwiches, whether or not this is a good idea changes.

If you cooked or purchased you Mushroom Sandwiches, you should not sell them, as you would lose money. Though the Mushroom Sandwich technically generates a profit of 1 bea when cooked, that takes into account the sale price of Pol Mushrooms, not their Work Point value. If you want to make money, you should use your Bread to make other sandwiches and deliver you Pol Mushrooms instead.

On the contrary, if someone gave you a Mushroom Sandwich, there was no cost to obtain it, so you will not lose money selling it. While 15 bea is not an incredible amount of money, if you urgently need it, this is a somewhat decent option, though you should seek out alternatives first.

### Giving to Others

Much like how citizens and travelers can give you Mushroom Sandwiches, you have the ability to give it to them as well. To do this, hold a Mushroom Sandwich in your hands and talk to a friend, close friend, dear friend, Ihm, or family member (excluding babies) and select the "Give Lunchbox" option. If the NPC accepts your offer, you'll give one Mushroom Sandwich and improve your relationship with them. If they refuse, nothing happens, but you have the ability to make the offer again. Adults, children, and Ihms will have different reactions when accepting your offer:

* Adults will say it looks delicious and save it for later
* Children will celebrate and say it looks yummy
* Ihms will celebrate and immediately consume the Mushroom Sandwich

## Trivia

* Mushroom Sandwich is the only food made with Pol Mushrooms that all players can cook (except travelers). This is because the Pol Mushroom Pizza is exclusive to members of the Mountain Corps or those wearing a Corps Disguise. Despite its exclusivity, the Mushroom Sandwich and Pol Mushroom Pizza share the same Food Effects.
* Of all the sandwiches to generate a profit, the Mushroom sandwich has the lowest of only 1 bea. Maybe you're better off eating you Mushroom Sandwiches.
* Of all the sandwiches in the game, the Mushroom Sandwich has the lowest sale price and purchase price. Despite this, it has the same EXP Boosts as most other sandwiches, making it a great purchase. While the Mushroom Sandwich may be rich in flavor, it is not exclusive to those who are rich.
