Overeating (Mechanic Idea)

[Szczuku]

If you feed your character something that'd make them have +110% hunger they'll comment on how they're full. They'll also receive a debuff that slows them down.

This mechanic would:

1. Encourage people to use more diverse methods of healing (which would mean that new content being a healing item wouldn't be frowned upon)

2. Give Klei more space to work with when designing characters. Minor perks linked to overeating.

The concept for overeating looks like it was introduced since the very beginning but haven't been explored in the final product.

I feel that the game is hard enough for newcomers of the series. 
I do not have all food percentages in my head. Imagine eating a meaty stew then getting debuffed. 

An alternate to implement this concept would be to have the player refuse the food saying something like "I'm not hungry enough" (Poor Wolfgang mains)
