General Commands
Syntax: drink <object>                  (drink liquid from a drink container)
Syntax: eat   <object>                  (eat food or a magical pill)
Syntax: eat   <object> <container>      (eat directly from a container)
 
Drink instructs your character to drink from a fountain or a drink container
to alleviate thirst.
 
Eat instructs your character to eat an item of food or a magical pill (which
function in a similar fashion as potions); pills do not fill stomach space.
 
In previous versions of the game and older SWR/SMAUG codebases, not eating
or drinking would eventually lead to your character suffering from hunger
and thirst, reducing your effectiveness in-game. Here on LotJ you do not
need to eat or drink to preserve yourself, and will suffer no ill-effects.
These commands are now simply for roleplay.
