I have been using a "cheat sheet" posted by Andrew Klossner
a while back which specifies the edibility of certain
monsters and their magic properties when eaten.
Just two corrections. I'm playing version 1.02, so if my
comments are impertinant for 1.03, forgive me.
1) Andy states that if you eat an acid blob, you stop
turning to stone. I've had a game just now wherein
the cockatrice's hissing didn't turn me to stone,
but touching it after killing it did.
2) Acid blobs *can* become tainted. I ate one that had
been sitting for about 50-75 turns and was tombstoned
for it.
Does this fortune have anything to do with edibility?

Good Luck to all,
