The Rotten Meat (くさった肉 Kusatta Niku?) is a bad food item that decreases health in the Castlevania series. It appears in Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow, Dawn of Sorrow and Harmony of Despair.
In both Sorrow games, it will damage Soma Cruz if he attempts to consume it without the Demon Stomach soul equipped (obtained from the Flesh Golem in Aria of Sorrow, and the Ghoul in Dawn of Sorrow). In that case, the Rotten Meat will recover Soma's HP, making it a wise alternative to shelling out cash for health potions. Curiously, one of these items is provided in Boss Rush Mode of Aria of Sorrow (along with a Spoiled Milk), such that it can either be used with the above combination as an extra healing, or intentionally reduce HP to 1 to gain full effect of Lubicant soul.
It is the least harmful bad food in Harmony of Despair, reducing HP by only 29, which is less than the Rusty Food Tin (HP -100).
