Ratatouille is based on a movie, and contains spoilers.  If you haven't seen 
the movie and don't want plot twists revealed, you certainly shouldn't be 
playing the game and you shouldn't be reading this FAQ.  As I play through the 
game, I will be writing the walkthrough that follows.  I will not mark 
spoilers that may occur, but I won't reveal them ahead of the point at which 
they are revealed in the game.  You are discouraged from reading ahead, and I 
encourage you to consult this FAQ and Walkthrough only when you are stuck and 
figuring out the solution to your problem has ceased to be enjoyable.  With 
all of that said, let's get on to the walkthrough!

Below, you'll find a section devoted to each in-game mission.  I've included a 
short description of the mission's content, in case you've forgotten where you 
are in the game.  Scroll down to the segment where you are stuck.  Note that 
you can also skip directly to the world that is of interest by using the index 
at the top of the FAQ.

This walkthrough will not tell you how to obtain every last item in the game, 
or where you can find every last star.  It will instead include general (and 
in many cases, detailed) information on how to complete the required story 
stages and how to collect most items.  It will also include instructions on 
how to complete the bonus stages (you can find those at the end of the 
walkthrough section).  Sometimes, I complete missions out of their recommended 
order, and you'll find that in later missions, I reference events from 
previous missions that may have been optional at the time.  You should still 
find this walkthrough useful, however, whether you just consult it at key 
points, or use it as a map throughout the whole game.  Good luck!
