Bad taste in mouth

[mouseturd]

Not sure if its needed or wanted, but I was picking up a pack of gum and had the thought.

Bad tasting food / splatter from zombie can cause a bad taste in your mouth.
Bad taste = moral modifier.
Chewing gum / eating sweet food removes the bad taste

Thoughts?

Hehe. Cute. However most people wear scarves and other stuff in front of their mouths, blocking incoming stuff.

I like it, some unpleasant foods could also trigger this - maybe stuff like horse radish?

This is already implemented (the food part anyway). You get moral penalties for chowing down on raw mustard etc.

I think there idea was essentially “washing the taste” out of your mouth to get the morale penalties cleared quicker.

Hey, this is a pretty neat idea. I could get behind it.

Not to mention that chewing gum otherwise gives such a weak morale bonus it might as well not exist. Giving it a use like this would be really handy.
