Character won't eat custom food

[Thunderhelm]

Hi, I'm new to modding but I know a bit of lua.

I'm trying to make a character named Fluffy, a magic teddy bear who only eats magic gems. I've been trying for a while, and it's stopped crashing but the character won't eat the healing gem, they just inspect it. How do I make them eat the gem?

 

In my character file:

inst.components.eater:SetDiet({ FOODGROUP.OMNI }, {FOODTYPE.GEMS, FOODTYPE.GOODIES })

inst.components.eater.foodprefs={FOODTYPE.GEMS}

 

In my item file

inst:AddComponent("edible")
    inst.components.edible.foodtype = "GEMS"
    inst.components.edible.healthvalue = 50
    inst.components.edible.hungervalue = -50
    inst.components.edible.sanityvalue = 0
 

Thanks in advance.

I found the issue, adding the GEMS food type to the first table seemed to have fixed it.
