Does meal size matter?

[pijan]

I read something saying that you should buy muffins because food all consumes at the same rate on p99. The post was from 2015 so didn't know if this is still true.

I'm 90% sure meal size doesn't matter as that only changes after Velious

Muffins and the occasional turnip.

IIRC someone showed a patch note that implemented meal size, and it was in the classic era. Too lazy to look it up though, maybe someone else can.

Either way, despite it being classic I don't think it's been implemented yet. Could be wrong though.

Man... If there was Burger King Whoppers and Dr. Pepper in the game then my characters would be chomping on those all day...

Clicked on this thread for P99 RL expert tips about not being a fatty.... Then read first line about eating only muffins. :o

My characters all should be dead from malnutrition.... Eating nothing but loafs of bread can't be healthy. They gatta have some life threatening deficiency by now...

So I've been wasting money on iron rations for years? Cool.

It’s not about the size of the meal, it’s how you use it.

I summon food / drink every time I log in, and have a stack of fuzzlecutter just in case. Burnt bread and brown water builds character.

If my memory serves me, fish rolls were the best in velious because of duration and weight (and they're super cheap and easy to make)....fuzzles was the drink until Lublin brought about stat foods

[kjs86z]

Iron rations only

[azeth]

forgot until now having to put some effort into min/maxing food choices in Luclin and PoP. Stat food was cool, but ultimately just more work.

Muffins and milk
