Challenge Game idea: The picky eater
The idea of this game is that your PC is very picky with what they eat(obviously). The rules are as follows:
Allowed Food:
Baked Goods(Bread, Cakes, [Fortune] Cookies, etc)
Most Cooked Corpses
Fresh Meat/Fried Fish
Apples/Melons
Gelee Royal
Others(possily)
Temporary Food:
Rations(Only until you obtain an allowed food. After that, you can never ever eat a single ration again, even if it is the only food you have left)
Disallowed food IF your character starts with it AND you have no allowed food.
Disallowed Food:
Raw Corpses
Raw Meat/Fish
Any Corpses(cooked or uncooked) that taste bad or make the PC vomit/sick. This includes(but is not limited to):
Troll Corpses
Spider Corpses(Unless Dark Elf)
Ant/Slug Corpses
Herbs of any kind
Any food your PC knows to be Cursed(either from B/C/U status or rotten status)
Scrolls of Satiation/Berzio Potions(PoT or PoPT are okay, not PoBT)
Divine Satiation(Because it's not really a food)
Arena Food(Cooked Lizards, Fried Bats, etc.)
So, any takers? Trolls are allowed, but still cannot eat raw corpses(or raw meat)
EDIT: Modified rules to include cooked lizards and rations

Monk seems the obvious choice. Hurthling monk would start with cooking; troll monk would offset the nasty troll satiation problem. Farmers actually wouldn't be a terrible choice either, if you were that concerned about it.
Are cooked lizards okay?
-
I'm curious if a vegetarian win is possible...
-
I have to say no on lizards, because not only would it make it to easy(all you have to do is make it to arena and you're set) and because they're practically junk food anyway. As far as rations, they're okay if you character has not found any other food in the game. After you find, say, a loaf of bread, you can not eat any more rations at all in the game, even if you run out of other foods.
Vegitatian win? So, Apples/Melons/Seeds/Herbs? Hmm...
-
I have done the opposite where only food that makes the PC vomit/sick is allowed. Starting food is also OK. Potions and scrolls of any type are OK, so is divine satiation. Survival may not be actively used.
-
I think Gelee Royal/Scroll of Satiation/Divine Satiation are also vegetarian. Survival is a... no? Carrot juice and water are OK, but other potions are probably off limits. Vegan scraps the gelee royal. Breathatarian uses only scrolls, prayers and potions.
-
Starving man has been done before, where the 'e'at command is disallowed throughout the game.
-
How did they pull starving man off?
-
Lots of prayer - guy ended up going from spiritually invincible to god pissed off in a single prayer by the end of the game. Scrolls of satiation and various potions also helped I presume.
-
I can't imagine food challenges can get harder than starving man...
