This was news to me, thanks for sharing this OP.

Stardew valley lied to me!

Stardew lied a lot lol. Starfruit for example, only looks like a star in cross section, but i guess the actual starfruit is hard to represent in pixel.

I always assumed the Stardew starfruit was a special fruit that just happens to share a name with our starfruit.

true. I think the star representation is fine because eating it the slices are basically stars so its valid artistic license.

as for blobfish, u can argue its dead when u catch it but aquarium and ponds exist so that's kinda sus
