Greetings, I have recently compiled and prepared this suggestion and now wish to share it with the community. This suggestion concerns the food and drink of the jungle roaming Tauredain. As sources and inspiration for this suggestion, I have made use of records of the cultures which inspired the Tauredain, such as the Aztec and Mayan civilizations.

Chili
When the tribal folk of the Tauredain, first ventured into the Jungles of the south, they came upon many strange flora and fauna, which were in the past unknown to them, amongst these was the chili plant. The chili plant would on occasion be found in the Jungle, however it would be primarily obtained through farming. Breaking, a chili plant will either supply you with chilis or chili seeds which can be used to produce further plants.

Consuming one of these chilis without preparation can be deadly towards the health of the player. Chilis are found with a random potency assigned, consuming a chili with a high potency may cause you to lose Health, less you quickly drink some Milk or Jungle Remedy.



Xocolatl
Amongst several other plants, the Tauredain also stumbled upon cocoa beans. These are well known for there use in confectionery products, however the Tauredain, used it alongside other ingredients to create a powerful brew known as Xocolatl. Xocolatl would be created in a simliar fashion to all other alcoholic beverages. The particular ingredients required to create the brew, are three chilis and cocoa beans, placed upon three buckets of water. When left ferment in a Barrel, this succesfully produces a rather potent and unusual beverage.

Maize
Following, many years of prosperous living in the Jungle, the Tauredain, began to also cultivate and produce Maize, or Corn as it is often more commonly referred to. This crop was produced in the Farms of the Tauredain, and once harvested yielded maize. This crop became essential to the Tauredain and soon became one of there primary food sources.



Maize Bread
Following the discovery of Maize, the Tauredain began to create a form of bread with the Maize they had harvested. They found this to be quite nutrious and wholesome and it quickly also became a essential part of there diet. Maize Bread, could be crafted on a Tauredain Crafting Table, and would make use of the bread recipe, commonly used to create other breads. The exception being the use of Maize in the stead of Wheat.



Popcorn
Through there rituals, the Tauredain discovered that by heating Maize, the small corns would split and expand into a rather oddly shaped objects. This product was considered to be rather sacred, and was only consumed by the mighty Tauredain Chieftain. This can be obtained by placing maize in a furnace. It is also sold alongside other products such as Xocolatl, by Tauredain Shamans.
