In Stardew Valley, the cast of characters the player can meet all have different preferences. With the mechanics of the friendship system, each character can have one of five preferences to every single item in the game: love, like, neutral, dislike, or hate. Though rare, there are a handful of gifts that are loved by everyone (with very few exceptions). These gifts are called the "universal loves" amongst the fanbase. Each will net the player +80 friendship points with the recipient.
