Crunchy mutfruit is a consumable item in Fallout: New Vegas. Consumables are items accessed through the "Aid" section of a player's Pip-Boy menu.
Background[]
Mutfruit or Malus maatta, is a mutated species of apple and crabapple.[1][Non-game 1] The fruit can be found across the wasteland, such as in New California, Washington, D.C., Boston, the Mojave Desert, and in Appalachia. Consumed as food by humans and ghouls like, mutfruit can be used to create a variety of items ranging from omelets to super stimpaks.[2][3] There are several variants that can be found or grown after the war depending on geographical location, including irradiated, fresh, crunchy, and wild varieties.
Characteristics[]
Crunchy mutfruit is a fruit of a slight purple tinge, appearing differently than standard mutfruit. The fruit restores 1 Hit Point per second for 5 seconds at the expense of 3 rads. Additionally, in Hardcore mode, it can alleviate Starvation. It is used in Rose's wasteland omelet recipe alongside BlamCo Mac & Cheese, a deathclaw egg, and lakelurk meat.

These different varieties are cultivated for their sweet flavor, their use in cooking, and even medicinal properties in some rare cases."
