About this mod
Food in Skyrim is mostly a joke. So laughably weak that you'd only consider it for roleplay and survival mods. I came to fix that. This mod overhauls most food in the game to being actually viable, rebalancing their effects to where you might actually eat food all game now. Just not so overtuned to outpace potions however.

What Does This Mod Do?

- Adds new food items and their recipes.
- Modifies loot of animals and animal-like monsters to drop more things.
Standard and ESO Style Versions
What is the difference? The standard version is more true to the vanilla style of food effects, while the ESO style has much more emphasis on Fortify Health/Stamina/Magicka like in ESO and longer durations meant to last a quarter of a day in Skyrim. You will find much less HP per second in the latter.
WARNING FOR FHO UPGRADERS.
I flagged this mod as an ESL now. This means it won't take up your normal plugin limit now or something. But doing this means you need to clean your existing saves of the old version's items according to my understanding. Recompacting to an ESL changes form IDs and Skyrim won't be happy when a bunch of junk is left behind in your save game from the upgrade.
