⚡ What King Cook does
As long as you have a Cooking Pot or Cooking Cauldron cosmetic in your garden, the Gorilla Chef cooks in it, and each dish has a 5% chance to come out duplicated. See the recipes page for what you can cook.
Some wiki notes: it doesn't count as a food-type pet, so the Mochi Mouse doesn't affect it. Because it stays put at the pot, a Gorilla Chef with the Shocked pet mutation can work like a Lightning Rod. It was the first pet to stay at the cooking pot. The Drake was the second.
