Meat
From TheKolWiki
 Meat
Meat is the currency used in the Kingdom of Loathing. It can be used to purchase items from the various markets and shops, or to purchase items from other players. It is also used to create meat pastes, meat stacks, and dense meat stacks.
A wise player keeps their mind on their Meat, and their Meat on their mind.
It is not edible (no one in their right mind would eat money) so most food in the kingdom of meat-free. Exceptions do exist, like sausage and fish meats. Why? Why not?
According to Jick, the reason why Meat is the currency of KoL is that, when he was developing the game, he did not have a picture of "gold" uploaded. However, there was a picture of meat he made earlier, so he used it instead. It is suspected that it was to get rid of the illogical "finding money on a monster".
Uses
Notes
- There is a cap on the Meat you can carry equal to (232) - 1, or 4,294,967,295. Any Meat in excess of this placed into your inventory, via any mechanism, is lost with no hope of return. Extremely rich players may wish to convert liquid Meat into meat paste, meat stacks, or dense meat stacks, keeping in mind item creation limits also exist. Another solution would be to invest in valuable items, or put meat in your closet.
