[net.games.rogue] Differences in food types

ecn-pa.alexande (08/10/82)

I've often wondered if there is any difference in the kinds of food you eat
during the course of the game.  I've never bothered to study this very
carefully, but it intrigues me.  Is there a difference in how long food will
last you if it says: "This food tastes good" (or whatever) and "Yuk, this
food tastes awful" (or whatever)?  Also, is there any difference between
eating food rations and eating a fruit?  Fruit always seems delicious, but
I don't know if it lasts you as long or whatever.  Anyone got any answers or
observations?

I know. However when the program returns with the string "Yuk, this
food tastes awful " the player receives experience points for eating
food.
