How do I identify food: is there turkey or ham?
Creator guidanceSitrex says there is no turkey or ham and points players to the allergy picture in the game description. Use that reference when the food sprites are hard to distinguish. This identifies the creator’s reference; it is not a tested rule for every mixed dish.
- Open the creator’s game page and find the allergy picture in the description.
- Compare the food image with that reference instead of assuming it is turkey or ham.
- If it is still unclear, capture the dish and ask in the creator’s comments; do not treat an unconfirmed food identification as a safe choice.

Why does the game get faster, and can hunger end a run?
Creator guidancePlayers report runs ending from hunger and a feeling of increasing speed. The September 18 update confirms that game speed rises during the night and that allergy and dish ratios were balanced. It does not specify a hunger formula or guarantee indefinite survival. Player reports do not identify the exact build or device; avoid comparing scores across versions as if conditions were identical.
