The Mozzarina Hamburger is the go-to feed for base workers in Palworld 1.0. It pushes work speed up by 50% while slowing how fast your Pals lose sanity, and every ingredient can be produced at your own base. That combination is what makes it the default late-game choice for keeping a base productive.
Quick answer: Craft the Mozzarina Hamburger at an Electric Kitchen using 1 Mozzarina Meat, 1 Flour, and 2 Lettuce, then place it in a base feed box so working Pals gain +50% Work Speed and +25% Sanity Resistance for 10 minutes.
Mozzarina Hamburger stats and buffs
Eating the dish restores hunger and a little sanity, then applies a timed buff that lasts 10 minutes. The buff also applies to Pals, so a stocked feed box keeps your whole workforce boosted.
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Work Speed | +50% |
| Sanity Resistance | +25% (slower sanity drain) |
| Nutrition / Satiety | +162 |
| Sanity restore | +20 |
| Buff duration | 10 minutes |
| Rarity / Rank | Rare · Technology Rank 3 |
At +50% Work Speed it ties Dumud Chowder for the top spot, but the hamburger’s added sanity protection is the deciding factor for logging sites and stone pits where workers burn out fastest. Note that food buffs never stack. Eating a new dish replaces the old one, so pick one buff type per base session.
Recipe and where to craft it
The recipe is short, and only the Mozzarina Meat needs sourcing beyond your farm plots. Flour comes from milled Wheat, and Lettuce grows on a berry-style plot.
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Mozzarina Meat | 1 |
| Flour | 1 |
| Lettuce | 2 |
| Work value | 32,000 |
Craft it at the Electric Kitchen. The Large-Scale Stone Oven and Ancient Kitchen also produce it. You need a power source for the Electric Kitchen, so keep a Power Generator running or assign an Electric Pal to Generating Electricity. One craft yields one hamburger. You know it worked when the dish appears in the output slot and can be moved into a base feed box.
Farm Mozzarina Meat by breeding and butchering
The most self-sufficient supply comes from raising Mozzarina at base and processing them for meat.
Farm Mozzarina Meat through Pal Expeditions
Expeditions bring in meat passively while you play, and one of them also returns Kinship Peaches. Send Pals out and collect the rewards on return.
| Expedition | Meat yield | Drop rate |
|---|---|---|
| Celestial Sakura Cavern (Saya) | 3–7 meat | 50% |
| Free Pal Alliance Illicit Trading Post (Lily, Hard Mode) | 10–20 meat, plus Kinship Peaches | 100% |
The Illicit Trading Post run on Hard Mode is the stronger option once you can clear it, since it delivers meat every time and adds breeding-fuel peaches on top.
Buy Mozzarina Meat from the Legendary Game Hunter
If you would rather buy in bulk, the Legendary Game Hunter merchant sells Mozzarina Meat for 114 gold each. You can lower that price by stacking discount Pals in your party.
How it compares to other base foods
Two other dishes hit the same +50% Work Speed ceiling, so the choice comes down to ingredients and sanity handling.
| Dish | Work Speed | Extra effect | Nutrition |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mozzarina Hamburger | +50% | Sanity drains 25% slower | 162 |
| Dumud Chowder | +50% | Hunger drains 25% slower; needs Raw Dumud | 170 |
| Mozzarina Cheeseburger | — | Attack +20%; hunger drains 50% slower | 288 |
| Salad | +30% | Cheap early-game filler | 84 |
Dumud Chowder matches the work-speed boost but relies on hunted or bred Dumud, while the Mozzarina Cheeseburger is an attack food rather than a work food despite its higher satiety. Salad remains the easiest early filler until your Electric Kitchen and a steady Mozzarina Meat supply are in place. Once both are running, the Mozzarina Hamburger stays fed to your workers because it protects sanity and keeps every ingredient inside your own base loop.
