    Your hunger not advancing while in jail makes perfect sense, assuming they're feeding you in prison. Also, in the context of this challenge, them detecting you stealing their food makes perfect sense as well.
    To me, the idea of not having at least a month's worth of food (for one person) in your home is strange. Mostly because I hate going grocery shopping so I'll typically buy a month's worth of food in one trip and then not go shopping again for a few weeks or so.

    • @TheLeafcuter

      @@lucidstateofmind8494 There were still ways of preserving food, it just wasn't as effective as fridges and freezers today. You'd usually store food in a cold cellar, away from sunlight and heat. You would also ferment a lot of food in salt, such as meat and fish, or dry it in the sun to make it last. And then there are cold resistant plants like potatoes.
