Implementing a favorite food in an RPG?
Tudoreleu:
theres some other issues you have to think about too, like the fairness or unfairness of having a certain food as a favorite
say you have food A (fries, heals 10hp) and food B (mashed potatoes, heals 50hp)
if you buff your favorite food by doubling its efficiency, then the characters who like mashed potatoes might have it way better because it now heals a lot more than it used to in one shot. or maybe the characters who like fries have it way better, because the fries are quite a bit cheaper, so now they can buy a larger amount of total heals?
food for thought :iceCream:

preferably it would only apply to the mid range of foods, not the best healing in the game, not the worst, etc. but somewhere in the middle

but some people do like the worst kinds of food, like cabbage (only heals 1hp in runescape it's so bad)
they're weird, but they exist
