Of course. Have you got a list of recipes you're thinking of teaching?

[unknowntodeath]

I have a list of general recipes that should be easy on beginners, yet, but I can also teach people to make a specific meal.

[acquirement]

You really are prepared. I assume you're also considering those who may venture further afield and have limited supplies for some of the recipes too?

[unknowntodeath]

Yes. We should be prepared for any kind of situation out on the field after all, including limited supplies of food and equipment.

True, not everyone will think to take much with them on a trip like that. Especially if they need to carry everything themselves.

[unknowntodeath]

Indeed. Foraging is another skill that would be important. Especially figuring out what even is edible.

I suppose normally people would refer to books or texts regarding what is safe to eat?

[unknowntodeath]

Yes. But I've found that the books are out of date, considering the changes that have happened due to the Darkness. So it might be time to renew those a little.

[acquirement]

Books generally are, since they take time to write and print, by the time the news is out to the public it is dated.

[unknowntodeath]

That's why people depend on the internet more. But the thing about that is anyone can make up facts there. At least books are generally checked before publishing.

[acquirement]

I noticed that. Is it the case for every page on the internet, or are there some considered more 'safe' to use as a reference than others?

[unknowntodeath]

Any place that is editable by anyone is unsafe; like the Wikillipsa*. Usually the information on there should be good, but it can be edited, so it's better if you confirm the information from other sources.

I see. Though if it can be posted at all, who is to say someone who says they are qualified on a topic is actually qualified?

[unknowntodeath]

Exactly. Usually books are confirmed and reconfirmed by various people, so they're more trustworthy in that sense.
