==Gourmand Overview=='''Gourmand''' is a skill that lets you get the most value out of regenerative foods. It is usually first obtained by eating hardtack found in a sack or porridge cooked by [[Lawara]] on the starter island Island of [[Anagoge]]. It is raised most effectively by eating every single type of unique consumable meal or drink that you come across. Such foods can be [[Cooking|cooked]], bought from vendors, or simply gathered (for example Large Strawberries). Some rare foods may be obtained as rewards for [[Quests|performing favors]] for or [[Hang OutOuts|hanging out]] with various NPCs.=== In-Game Description ===The art of appreciating what you eat.
