Forum:What is fruit good for?

From NetHackWiki

I know several uses for fruit, but I keep wondering if it does more than this: - It is food. - It has a potion that also has food value. - See invisible potions taste like it. - You can give it fun names with the 'fruit' option to make fun messages and maybe confuse anyone that finds your bones file. - The game is very smart about figuring out the potion name, plurals, etc. based on the fruit name you choose. - Feed it to a horse, with the taming effects.

What else is fruit good for?

  • Your list is pretty comprehensive, however it is important to note that fruit is light, is eaten in a single turn and can never be rotten. Until you come across a reliable, large supply of food (barracks, ant hole, etc) then fruit does make a good choice. Never turn down free food! -- Kalon 04:04, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
