Side effects of canned food:

Probability of rotten food (unless fortune cookie or dead monster): 1/7

Consequences of rotten food:

	3 in 16		blindness (2d10) (if not blind already)
	3 in 16		loss of consciousness (1-10)
	3 in 8		no harm

Value of rotten food: 1/4 normal value.

Consequences of eating dead monsters:
	acid blob, giant ant, giant beetle, dragon, homunculus,
		kobold, snake, vampire: poison (save: 1 in 5).
	bat: you become confused.
	cockatrice: you turn to stone.
	dog, human: you aggravate all monsters.
	dragon: you can resist fire.
	floating eye: you become telepathic.
	freezing sphere, yeti: you can resist cold.
	invisible stalker, yellow light: you become confused.  In Quest,
		also improves your vision by 1.

		thereafter.

		rust monster, umber hulk, unicorn, xan, zruty: you get
		sick and lose 1d8 hit points (save 1/5).

Side effects of ordinary food:
	tripe: gain 1 experience point; 1 chance in 2 of throwing it up
	carrot: in Quest, improves vision by 1
	fortune cookie: contains a message

Eating restores 1 strength point unless it leaves you weak or satiated.

  As far as fortune cookies...I never used to get them either.  Then I
stop killing my dog right away.  Does this have something to do with the
"luck" attribute people talk about?  I don't know if it is a valid correlation.
After you eat the fortune cookie a message will appear.


I have discovered several "incorrect" items in the original posting of
this article.  Through play (not source peeking), I have found the
following that contradict the original item:

>Side effects of canned food:
>	salmon		makes your fingers slippery for 1-15 turns
>	spinach		makes you stronger (18/01-18/00 if you are > 16;
>					18/01 otherwise)

I have had a strength of 9 go to 18/86, and a strength of 16 go to
17 before.

In hack, eating an I also allows you to see invisible.

>Side effects of ordinary food:
>	tripe: gain 1 experience point; 1 chance in 2 of throwing it up
>	carrot: in Quest, improves vision by 1
>	fortune cookie: contains a message

A carrot in hack will also cure blindness.


Poison resistance: If you find a potion of healing or extra healing, save it.
                   When you kill a killer bee, eat it and then quaff the potion
                   on your next turn.
