This update introduces a new status effect, Hunger💀. When you are inflicted hunger, your equipment is temporarily replaced with food. You have to eat food in that turn to prevent taking damage from hunger. It's like Poison? in Parallel Universe, but somewhat less intimidating. Now Witch can inflict this status effect with Spice Cauldron.
The update also adds a new enemy Gourmet Captain built around hunger. He has a Hookpick, combination of a Hookshot and a Lockpick, and 2 Meatball Cannon inflicting hunger with additional damage. Sadly he doesn't spawn in any of Witch's episodes, as hunger doesn't work well with her spellbook. You can still fight him as other 5 contestants.
As a side note, hunger doesn't replace countdown items with countdowns greater than 6. When food is replaced back to normal equipment, the equipment is initialized. This means the countdown is reset whenever it is locked with hunger. This restriction is to prevent players from cheesing enemies like Space Marine, Sticky Hands, and Cornelius. Guaranteed 18 turns against Cornelius would be just boring and unfun.
