Food in the pack goes bad: eat what spoils soonest and say what was wasted

In a long night of survival horror the food in the bag has different dates, and the player should not have to sort it. Here is how a meal picks the right item, what a nearly-spoiled one gives, and how the player is told about what rotted unseen.

Why this works

Whatever will be lost first should be used first. Using the soonest-to-spoil item respects the player's goal of wasting nothing, and telling them what went bad keeps the loss visible and fair instead of a quiet surprise they find later.

When not to use it

Skip it when choosing what to eat is itself the interesting decision, such as a game about rationing for a special meal. Then automatic picking removes the choice; show the list and let the player decide.
