They can be found within Cage Gorgons and can be grown by the player.+ +When eaten raw, it provides +10 to the food meter and +5 to the water meter. However, it can be used to make Pavlova and Cherimoya Chutney, both of which recover significantly more food points than the raw cherimoya rotsac.+ +## Appearance+ +The Cherimoya Rotsac has a green body that resembles Cherimoya fruit.+ +## Uses in Crafting+ +*   Pavlova+*   Cherimoya Chutney+ +## Databank+ +**Cherimoya Rotsac**+ +*Rotsac cherimoya*. A tunicate-like animal which collects alcohol from decaying matter to produce a creamy, flavorful mucus.+ +1.  **Cherimoya**: Named for its resemblance to the terrestrial cherimoya fruit (or custard apple). It can be eaten whole or sucked on through a straw; the exterior tunic is soft but the heart, nervous system, and other organs should be spat out. The rotsac contains mercury sulfide, which will eventually accumulate to dangerous levels in the human body.+2.  **Peculiar metabolism**: As a rough inverse of the lucifer rotsac, the cherimoya rotsac converts alcohols to sugars rather than decomposing sugars to alcohols. The cherimoya achieves this with a chemical pathway that does not occur on Earth. Aqueous cinnabar provides a source of mercury to oxidize alcohols into simple sugars. The cherimoya has no other behaviors: it simply stores sugars as it grows into a taut, full adult.+ +*Source: Scan a Cherimoya Rotsac*
