Summary: 

I have discovered several "incorrect" items in the original posting of
this article.  Through play (not source peeking), I have found the
following that contradict the original item:

>Side effects of canned food:
>	salmon		makes your fingers slippery for 1-15 turns
>	spinach		makes you stronger (18/01-18/00 if you are > 16;
>					18/01 otherwise)

I have had a strength of 9 go to 18/86, and a strength of 16 go to
17 before.

>Consequences of eating dead monsters:
> ...
>	invisible stalker, yellow light: you become confused.  In Quest,

In hack, eating an I also allows you to see invisible.

>Side effects of ordinary food:
>	tripe: gain 1 experience point; 1 chance in 2 of throwing it up
>	carrot: in Quest, improves vision by 1
>	fortune cookie: contains a message

A carrot in hack will also cure blindness.
