Loretip: Bargaining
You can do whatever you want with Raw Meat, limited only by your imagination. You can cook it to make a Food Item, give it as a gift, or you can throw it on your mortal enemies' faces to annoy them.
However, you cannot sell the Meat for more upvotes. What you can do however, is you can bargain with Merchants and Storeowners to lower the price of an Item if you add in an item with its worth. Different areas and regions have different pricings, and you can choose to do whatever you want. You may intimidate, befriend, manipulate or make offers.
