Carnivorous (D)

You eat meat exclusively.

You get no satiation from foods that aren't meat.
If you eat raw food that isn't meat, there's a 50% chance you become ill for 2 hours.
You can't cook with plant or fungus ingredients.
You don't get ill when you eat raw meat.
You can eat raw meat without being famished.

Creatures with the Carnivorous defect cannot eat plant- or fungus-based foods or ingredients.

Advantages & Disadvantages

This section is opinion-based. Your mileage may vary.

Advantages

Can be useful for those who do not intend to dip into cooking, but would like to occasionally get bonuses from their food.
Arguable, it is easier to stay satiated, because you can simply eat the corpses of many creatures that you kill, rather than taking time to build a campfire.
Makes it a bit easier to get the Eat an Entire Bear achievement.

Disadvantages

Prevents the player from gaining access to many powerful Cooking effects. For example, the player cannot gain Psychometry by cooking sun-dried bananas.

Food that is considered Meat

Food that contains plants or fungus

Trivia

Carnivorous replaced the Ravenous defect as part of the cooking and hunger rework.^[1]
Carnivorous was previously a 1-point physical mutation (not a defect), but was changed to a defect after the mutation balance overhaul (Patch 2.0.201.44)^[2]
