I agree with PeterM in this case, fireborns are already hard to play as it
is, to have them hunt for non-existing fire doesn't improve that
situation.

But there is another issu why the food should remain, when you're about to
starve to death you "blindly grab for food" and as long as you carry some
kind of food you're ok for the moment. It's harder to blindly dive into
fire. This also apply to the wraith disscussion.
To go into battle with magic in the +10 and a nice regen rate and not
having a reliable food supply is a pain in the..
