Aren't there manuals in the files section of the site?
Hot Fun and Cold Fun Recipes From Your Friend Computer!
Ugh, you lazy bums. You know the manual also came as a .pdf on the CD, right ... ?
No, no need to run off and find your disc(s). No need to go hunting the files section of NMA or hop onto replacementdocs.com for a copy either. (Although ... there's a picture of a Tim-Cainish(?) version of Vault Boy showing off those mushroom clouds in the Fo1 manual.) ... No, no need to do anything, because apparently, I have been blessed with the power of copy/paste!

APPENDIX 6: SURVIVAL RECIPES
Mushroom Clouds
(preheat oven to 200 degrees Fahrenheit)
Using a piping bag with a no. 8 tip, pipe out an equal number of caps and stems onto an ungreased non-stick cookie sheet. The caps should be about the diameter of a quarter, and the stems should be about an inch high and the diameter of a soda straw.
Sprinkle cocoa over the caps and stems, and then blow on them to spread out the cocoa more evenly. You may want to do this outside, as cocoa goes everywhere.
Bake for 2 hours at 200 degrees.
Carefully remove the caps and stems from the cookie sheet. With a dull knife, snip the top of each stem so it has a flat top surface.
Melt the chocolate (in a double boiler or microwave). Spread the chocolate on the base of each cap with a butter knife or spatula, and use it to glue a stem in place. Put the assembled mushrooms in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to harden the chocolate, then put them in an airtight container.
Makes 3-4 dozen.
Desert Salad
(Increase or reduce ingredient portions to taste)
In large bowl, mix lettuce, beans, and olives. Crush chips and add. Cut tomato into small chunks and add to bowl. Shred cheese and add. Slice avocado and add. Add meat. Toss with dressing. Serve.
Makes 4-6 portions.
*superfine sugar is NOT confectioner's sugar or 10X sugar. If you cannot find superfine sugar, it's easy to make. Just put granulated sugar in a blender or food processor, and blend for 1 minute.

APPENDIX 7:
"The Big One" Pancake

Ignite 60 charcoal briquettes on firegate of barbecue; let burn until coals are covered with just gray ash, about 30 minutes. Spread coals evenly. Place grill 4 to 6 inches above coals.
Thread equal portions of lamb,slightly apart, on 6 slender 10- to 12-inch metal, or wooden skewers.
Thread equal portions of peppers slightly apart and alternating colors, on 6 more skewers. Brush peppers all over with cumin marinade.
Place peppers and lamb on grill. Cook, turning and basting once with cumin marinade, until peppers are tender when pierced, and meat is done to your liking (cut to test), 10 to 15 minutes for medium rare. Makes 6 servings.
