Insect jelly and chocolate are the only nonperishable foods that high-ranking [[Titles#Conceited_vs_Non_Conceited|conceited nobles]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} are willing to eat. They can act as a sort of "lavish survival meal". ([[Beer]] is technically nonperishable, but you can only drink so much before blacking out or getting addicted) | Insect jelly and chocolate are the only nonperishable foods that high-ranking [[Titles#Conceited_vs_Non_Conceited|conceited nobles]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} are willing to eat.

− | As a food item, | + | As a food item, insect jelly only provides 8% Gluttonous recreation per unit, and has a 2% chance of [[food poisoning]] that is unavoidable without the [[Genes#Strong stomach|strong stomach gene]]{{BiotechIcon}}. However, insect jelly has 1/3 the weight per unit - it is lighter. Overall, jelly has 66.6% the weight per nutrition and {{%|4/15 round 3}} weight per recreation %. Insect jelly's lighter weight may be useful in longer caravan trips, though with sufficient [[pack animal]]s you may have enough carrying capacity. Finally, insect jelly is more valuable - in the event that you need to sell things to a faction base, then jelly is superior. |

Chocolate requires both [[Research#Tree sowing|Tree Sowing]] and [[Research#Cocoa|Cocoa]] to be researched. However, once researched, it can be grown at will. Meanwhile, insect jelly requires an [[infestation]]. This first requires that an [[overhead mountain]] tile is available, and then you'll have to fight and/or farm the infestation in the first place. But larger infestations can result in massive quantities of jelly. |
Ultimately, which option is preferable will depend on the circumstances of each individual colony, as well as player preference. A colony in a mountain will accumulate lots of insect jelly, but find it harder to grow cocoa trees. A colony in a flat map is unlikely to face an infestation, but can grow chocolate. | Ultimately, which option is preferable will depend on the circumstances of each individual colony, as well as player preference.
