Food Spoilage introduces a comprehensive food preservation system that makes food management a strategic part of survival gameplay. All food items gradually decay over time, but you have multiple ways to preserve them and extend their shelf life.

🍎 Dynamic Food Decay System

All food items gradually lose freshness over time
- Visual feedback with colored overlays on items (hotbar & inventory)
- Detailed tooltips showing freshness percentage - Spoiled food converts to rotten flesh

❄️ Preservation Methods

Ice-based freezing: Place ice blocks in containers with food to freeze it

Modded refrigerators: Compatible with furniture mods (configurable)

Container-based preservation: Different containers have different decay rates

Underground storage: Items stored deep underground decay slower (Done!!)

🧊 Freezing & Thawing

Frozen food doesn't decay
Ice consumption system (realistic resource management)
Automatic thawing when removed from cold storage
Thawing items become edible after configured time

🎨 **Visual Indicators**

Color-coded overlays on items:
- 🟢 Green: Fresh (100-75%)
