How to eat from crocks? + How to move rot from crocks into a barrel?

[SquishyCow]

I realized that the food in my crocks was starting to spoil, so I tried eating it before it turned to rot, and nothing happened.

Do I have to do something special to eat from a crock, or will it just not let me eat semi-spoiled food?

Additionally,

I know that you can throw crocks with rot in them into water to wash them, but is there a way to transfer the rot into a barrel? I haven't been able to find any terra preta, and want to make fertilizer.

You need to take a portion from it with a bowl to eat from crocks.

I think you can't get the rot out without washing the crock.

When you throw the crock full of rot into water, the rot will float out of the crock and can be collected, at which point you can stick it in a barrel to compost.

Thank you both!
