USER: #2471A3 - Inquiry Regarding Foodstuffs and Other Edibles

[unfatalist]

[ USER: #2471A3 ]

It appears that as a group we've all generally agreed to utilize this forum as a means of sharing relevant information with each other and pooling collectively our experiences as we grow acclimated to our new circumstances, so in a similar vein — a few questions, if you will.

1) Has anything verifiably edible (and safe for consumption) been found in the wilds surrounding this town?

2) Has anyone yet identified a foodstuff that isn't altogether flavorless?

I feel certain there must be something. This place has all the indicators of being a civilization, and I find it difficult to imagine a civilization that doesn't include coffee or some reasonable substitute.

If there are laptops, there has to be coffee. Even if it isn't the coffee I'm used to, I'll take it.

...You know, that's perhaps the most compelling argument I've heard yet for the existence of coffee in a place like this.

Thank you, you've just made me feel better, genuinely.

I've been trying to take apart the laptops, but it's slow going with coffee. Maybe that's their plan.
