Changes

When adding an item to the potluck soup, only edible, uncooked items are valid (although [[Life Elixir]] and [[Oil of Garlic]] are [[Crafting|crafted]] and not [[Cooking|cooked]], the game considers them "cooked" items, so they are not eligible.  [[Magic Rock Candy]] and [[Piña Colada]] are considered "cooked" items as well, so they are not eligible.  [[Field Snack]] and [[Bug Steak]], however, are eligible).  Note that the game does not inform the player before the event that the "potluck" is a soup, nor that cooked or inedible items are invalid.

Before the soup-tasting, [[Lewis|Mayor Lewis]] states, "I trust that you all put high-quality ingredients in the pot this year. We don't want the governor to regret his visit to the valley!"  At this point it is too late for the player to change the item already added to the soup.

Note that item quality, base sell price, and edibility (healing effect) are the three determining factors of the Governor's reaction.  [[Skills|Profession bonuses]] that increase the sell price of items (such as [[Farming#Farming Skill|Rancher]], [[Fishing#Fishing Skill|Angler]], etc.) are not considered in the game's calculations.
