So, I have 204 food total, some 130 seeds and 74 "other". My dwarves are freaking out because there's no food. However, there's a giant stack of 'raw cave fish' in the food storage room! If I tell the cook to do something with it, the job gets cancelled ("need two cookable unrotten items in range"), and the dwarves won't eat it raw. It also shows up as "other" rather than "fish".

You can process them in the fishery.  The terminology isn't very clear.

Aah. I didn't realize I needed a fish foundry.

Well, I have one now, but it may be too late; my previously thriving community of 39 dwarves is down to 24, and everything between Entrance Hall and Hub 1a (South) is coated in blood.

It bugs me the way they won't stop hunting for vermin long enough to do a job that could get them real food...once it gets to the point where most of your dwarves are starving it's almost impossible to get them to do anything to pull themselves out of it.

Sometimes they don't even stop when edible food gets added to the stockpile.

Vermin are just too darn tasty, that's the problem.

Even without ketchup?
