A chunk of fat, good for cooking purposes. It can catch fire quickly, though. In-game description

Fat is an item that can be obtained from medium to large animals and Survivors by skinning and quartering them with a Knife after they have been killed.

Consuming Fat harvested from Survivors has a high chance of causing Brain Prion Disease.

Note: Fat harvested from Survivors is not specifically labelled as 'Human Fat', so take care to not mix Animal and Human Fat in your inventory or storage.

Uses:

• It can be used to craft, upgrade and refuel Torches.
• It can be cooked over an open Fireplace using a Sharpened Stick, or using a Cooking Pot or Frying Pan in order to make it safer to eat and easier to preserve.
• Human Fat can be used in a Cooking Pot or Frying Pan with Animal Steak for Baking/Drying without contaminating the meat with Brain Prion Disease.
  • Note: This has been verified as of patch 1.08, but may be subject to change in future patches.

Variants:

• 

  Raw

• 

  Baked

• 

  Boiled

• 

  Burned
