Mushroom Soup
Food · FoodDishVegetable0★A cream soup built on Mushrooms. Fullness lasts a little longer for a while after eating.
Mushroom Soup is 13th of 20 cooked dishes by hunger restored, at 52 against the 738 of Special Cake.
Nothing is crafted from it — it is an end product, so anything you make is meant to be used rather than banked as a component.
Details
It weighs almost nothing and stacks to 9,999, so there is no reason not to carry a full stack.
Mushroom Soup Crafting Recipe
Mushroom×1
Milk×2Crafting it takes 3 materials across 2 types, and the bottleneck is almost always the 2× requirement — line that up first and the rest follows.

Using Mushroom Soup Well
The vague "stay full longer" line has a number behind it: hunger resistance +25% for 600 seconds. Ten minutes of eating one quarter less often, on top of the 52 nutrition the bowl itself puts back — so drink it at the start of a long trip, not when the bar is already empty.
The Cooking Pot at Technology 17 is the earliest station that will take this recipe; a campfire will not. After that the Electric Kitchen, Large-Scale Stone Oven and Ancient Kitchen all cook it, and those three are worker-only, so a Kindling Pal has to be on the station for anything to come out.
The cook is 10,000 work — twenty times a Baked Mushroom and double Marinated Mushrooms. This is a queue-it-and-walk-away dish, so batch a stack of bowls onto a high-Kindling worker rather than standing at the pot waiting for one.
Both ingredients renew themselves at base. Milk comes only from Mozzarina on a Ranch, and two are needed per bowl, so keep at least a pair of them penned. Mushroom is picked off the ground island-wide and also drops from Mycora (2-3), Lovander (2-4) and Shroomer (1-2) — the mushroom half is never the bottleneck, the milk is.
Mysterious Mushroom runs the exact same buff in reverse: hunger resistance -25%, for 60 seconds instead of 600. Same stat, opposite sign, one tenth the duration.
Alternatives and Upgrades
Step up from here and you get Stir-Fried Vegetables at 54 hunger restored; step down and it is Jam-Filled Bun at 51. That gap is the honest measure of whether an upgrade is worth the materials right now.
