A fine meal can be eaten by humans or animals for 0.9 [[nutrition]]. As it takes 0.75 nutrition of [[raw food]] to create, vegetarian fine meals provide 120% nutrition efficiency, which is less than regular fine meals. | A fine meal can be eaten by humans or animals for 0.9 [[nutrition]].

Vegetarian meals are less efficient for food than simple meals or fine meals. However, they are reasonable for daily use, if your colonists have the time to produce the extra food. They can also be saved for mood-related emergencies. |
| − | + | Even if meat could be available through hunting or ranching, it might be easier to make vegetarian meals instead. You would need to grow +{{%|(.75 / .5) - 1}} more food to make vegetarian fine meals. Getting meat could take more work. | |

To establish how much extra work a vegetarian fine meal would take, we would need an estimate of how much is required to feed a pawn with (vegetarian) [[simple meal]]s. In [[difficulty|Losing is Fun]], 25 tiles in regular soil is a rough over-estimate of what would feed a baseline pawn with year-round growing, assuming a competent planter and simple meals. | To establish how much extra work a vegetarian fine meal would take, we would need an estimate of how much is required to feed a pawn with (vegetarian) [[simple meal]]s.

Remember that these values are for a grower with Plants 8. If you have anyone better than Plants 8, or if you are playing on a lower difficulty than Losing is Fun, then you'll need even less work. | Remember that these values are for a grower with Plants 8.

This analysis makes multiple key assumptions. First, it neglects the "spike" in work caused by each harvest. Second, it assumes a temperate, year-round ground biome with 0 negative events harming your crop production. Finally, it does not include the extra, pre-skill {{Ticks|{{#expr: {{P|Work To Make}} - {{Q|Simple meal|Work To Make}} }}}} of work required to actually cook a fine meal (of any type). After taking these assumptions in mind, you can compare it to the effort of gathering meat. | This analysis makes multiple key assumptions.

| − | Overall, vegetarian fine meals are very affordable in terms of work. Growing more food is a simple task, especially in temperate and warm [[biome]]s. If a [[cold snap]] or [[toxic fallout]] ruins your food supply, you could always switch back to simple meals, giving you a nice food buffer.
