About this converter
Perish timers run from 3 to 40 days in the wiki food table. Roasted berries last 3 against 6 raw, roasted carrot 6 against 10 raw carrot. Raw meats sit at 6: meat, morsel, drumstick and monster meat. Cooked meat reaches 10 with egg, and cooked monster meat reaches 15 as the exception. Drying racks turn meats into 20 day jerky across all three types. Honey tops raw foods at 40 days. Cooked eggs at 6 and cooked morsels at 10 stay out to keep the table tight.
How to use it
Pick two foods and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. Try 1 honey against berries to see the six point six to one gap. Fridges and ice boxes multiply these base timers in game.
Carrot raw is 10 days, not 6, and small jerky is 20, not 15, per the current table. Cooked vegetables spoil faster than raw while cooked meats last longer, except monster meat which jumps from 6 to 15. Drying takes 1 to 2 days on the rack before the 20 day clock starts. Salt boxes and winter cold stretch timers further in game versions.
