Mushroom Cloud

Mushroom Cloud is a consumable item in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
This food gives +3 HP a second for 20 seconds, while at the same time increasing the player's Action Points by +3 until the effects wear off. These boosts make it a potent mid-level healing item.

Crafting
This item must be crafted by the player. It cannot be found on enemies or in containers.

Creation requirements

Behind the scenes
Mushroom Cloud is a direct reference to the real-world recipe featured in the Fallout game manual, alongside the desert salad recipe.

Bugs
Prior to patch 1.2.0.31x, the recipe called for 2 piles of nightstalker eggs. This is a quest item for Bleed Me Dry, and only one could be found in the entire game, preventing the recipe from being created. It has since been changed to require only 1 regular nightstalker egg.
