=Description=
This mod strives to improve the usefulness of foods in Skyrim, providing a feasible alternative to potions and restoration magic. I won't bore you with a comparison between my changes and the default Skyrim's food, just know that the next time you see that sweetroll laying helplessly on a lonely tavern's dusty table, you may actually be tempted to steal it.

This mod makes no real attempt to be 'realistic', instead the goal is to be 'useful'.

Meats will favor health restoration.
Vegetables will favor stamina restoration.
Fruits and sweets will favor magic restoration.

This doesn't necessarily mean that one category of food will always, and only provide that type of restoration, but it is helpful to think of it as a general guideline when searching for the foods that meet your needs.

You will find that the effectiveness of each individual food is spread over a long duration; usually between 10 and 120 seconds. Some foods have additional bonuses that lasts between 1 and 30 minutes. Cooked foods are more beneficial to the player, as they are most likely to have the strongest secondary bonuses. Unlike potions and spells, food is best eaten before or after a battle.

With the exception of Milk, no beverages have been altered...
See screenshots for examples.

=Known Issues=
None thus far.

=Compatibility=
This mod is not compatible with mods that make similar changes to foods in skyrim. Whether or not this applies to survival mods depends on how that mod's features were implemented. So long as your survival/realism mod does not depend on changes made to the effects applied by consuming foods, it will work fine if this mod is placed after said mod in the load order.

=Installation=
Install with NMM
or
Drop the Esp files into your skyrim dictionary.

Each ESP file will work independently in any order you choose. This means you can, if you so choose, install the Dragonborn or HearthFires optional files without any need of the Skyrim main file. Do not use the Another Food Mod -All_In_One file if you do not have both HearthFires and Dragonborn DLC installed. Do not use the All_In_One file in combination with any of the other files provided by this mod.
