Can you believe it?

I think you should be able to eat in Reach. Eating would be a cool new feature, no other FPS would have it. It could also add some interesting changes to gameplay and would be something other than just running and gunning. It could work similar to finding health packs in Halo: CE. And if you could eat in it, what do you think they would eat?

RPG style eating, where although I am an inch away from death, I can eat a turkey leg and magically heal broken bones, internal bleeding, and bring myself back to full health?

Yeah... it shouldn't become dead rising where all the spartans are carrying gallons of orange juice slung around their backs.

I mean, really, what type of food are you going to find on a battle field? This better not turn into Fallout 3 either where you can eat people to heal yourself.

You also have a big helmet on, as well as full body shielding. Are you going to turn off your shields, take off your helmet, just to have a bite to eat while jackal snipers happily use your head for target practice? Or will a sippy straw come out from the crack between the neck and the helmet so Chief can suck up some of that orange juice he is lugging about?

Just stay with Health packs. The Spartans are not using Mk.VI and so they need health packs. Makes more sense than food.

You could find food that other humans were carrying or or pick up food that the covenant drop. I always wondered what a food nipple tasted like...

It probably tastes bad as it is just basic rations nutrients. It's also Grunt food and as they're aliens it might not be to our tastes.

You do realize that Grunts breathe methane, right? Cow farts, are mostly methane. Do you really think Grunts care about what things taste like?
