I have no mercy for this game but I assure you that other than headaches like finding onion seeds, the food is pretty much balanced at this point. Just do straight stamina foods until you plan on needing to block something, at which point you should do your 2 best health foods and 1 best stamina food.

You forgot to add the obligatory "bukeperries" in the middle there. So to reset yourself from Stam to Health mode, you have to eat four things total, puke once. It's a bit silly, but meh. I'm not really interested in the game at this stage with the changes that have gone in.
