Rubbish is one of the most common objects, found across all regions. Pieces of Rubbish are small, and can take on a variety of shapes, resembling bricks, rocks, bolts or pipes.
Function
Utility
The main use of Rubbish as a weapon is to stun Creatures. This makes it extremely useful, even despite its low damage (0.01 per hit). It's especially effective against 
Lizards, since hitting them in the head flips them over, exposing their vulnerable body. Additionally, Rubbish can be thrown for a short period after the 
Slugcat has been incapacitated, potentially releasing it.
Upon hitting surfaces with enough force, Rubbish produces a loud noise that gets the attention of most predators, prompting them to investigate the source of the sound. This is very useful against creatures that rely purely on hearing to find their prey, such as 
Daddy Long Legs or 
Black Lizards.
Rubbish can also be used to more easily acquire certain foods - 
Blue Fruit and 
Noodlefly Eggs fall off of the vine when hit by Rubbish, while throwing Rubbish at 
Batflies kills them.
Movement
Due to its availability, Rubbish is a great object to utilize for throw-boosts. Simply throwing one or two pieces of Rubbish at the start of a pounce provides a ton of horizontal momentum, and can allow the Slugcat to make it past otherwise impassable gaps.
