Chronicle
Terminal state of most perishables that sat too long in a pack, a cellar, or the forgotten corner of a supply shed. Can still be eaten in desperation, and the desperate eater learns why that clause sits on the last page of every field manual. Most households bury it, most armies compost it, and the apothecaries who collect it for study refuse to explain what they do with it afterwards.
