Truffles do not come from pigs.
Truffles are a kind of fungus, like a type of mushroom, which grows underground. The truffles fetch a high price on the market but they can be very hard to find. Pigs can apparently smell them and sometimes, particularly in France, they are trained to scent out the truffles for their owners.

∙ 13y agoNo, they are a type of fungus and are highly sought after. Pigs are invovled, as they are very good at sniffing out truffles which grow under ground. Dogs are also good at finding them. They have a very distinctive taste / smell and tend to be used to garnish food, rather than forming the major part of the meal. They reproduce by spreading their spores in the body waste of animals which eat them, which is where the manure connection may have come from.

How do you do Truffles for Cara cook on horseisle?
First, talk to Cara Cook and she'll tell you to go get her truffles. Talk to Fritz at the edge of the saddle isle forest. He will lend you Truffles, his pig. Enter the forest until you find Truffles in the beginning when you enter it. When you find him, rake and you will find one. But you will need 5 more. So, keep going and following and raking where ever Truffles goes :) Breezerider Cremelo server
