Cabbage


 * For other cabbages, see Cabbage (April Fools) or Cabbage (Draynor Manor).

A Cabbage is a consumable item, which can be obtained either by growing it on a Farming patch, or by picking it in various areas around RuneScape. Upon eating it, it restores 1 hitpoint (Draynor Manor variety heals 2). No cooking is required for consumption. It is also note worthy that there are two varieties, the only notable differences being that they have different examine texts, and that one yields either a +1 or +2 defence boost. The abnormal variety is located in Draynor Manor (and heals 2), and the normal one can be found in various other places (and heals 1).

If cabbages are brought to the Zanaris marketplace, they can be sold for 100 coins each (they must be unnoted).

Quests

 * During Black Knights' Fortress (quest), a normal cabbage is needed to destroy the evil potion.


 * In Big Chompy Bird Hunting, a cabbage may be used as an ingredient needed to cook the bird.


 * In Garden of Tranquillity you need to grow a cabbage for Kragen.

Trivia

 * During As a First Resort..., Balnea offers players the chance to partner in a lucrative new business venture. Players have the option to reply "I would rather fill my bank with cabbages" instead of accepting.


 * In the earlier years of RuneScape Classic, the game's chat filter would dub the word "cabbage" over anything offensive, furthering the use of the stereotype.


 * On April Fools' Day, 2007, a joke news post was released hinting at new "Cabbage armour" and a "Cabbage spellbook". The news post was removed the following day.


 * On 2009 April Fools, cabbages started jumping around and there were a variety of ways a player could interact with them you can kick and tap them. For example, players were able to pick them and then wield them as weapons and able throw to other players if the other player turned on accept aid. The cabbages returned to normal the following week. Some players hoarded large amounts of these cabbages during the event in hopes that once the event is over, they would become discontinued items and sell for a large profit in the future. However, it as been made clear that there will never be any more discontinued items due to the impact they've had on the economy.


 * If you use a cabbage with another cabbage you'll get an interesting message. This appears to be a spoof of Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, when Obi-Wan uses a jedi mind trick to fool some Imperial forces while saying "These are not the droids you are looking for".
