Use Feed a hungry Goriya, lure enemies

Bait (also known as Food or Enemy Bait) is an item from The Legend of Zelda. This item, which appears to be some sort of meat, can be used to lure enemies to a specific location, making them easier for Link to kill. However, it is needed to feed a Hungry Goriya in Level 7 (Level 3 and Level 8 in the Second Quest); the creature blocks Link's path, crying "Grumble, grumble," and the only way to move forward is to present it with the bait. It can be purchased from a few of the Merchants in the caves around Hyrule.
