Hump FAQ

Version 1.1 added Bactrian’s Hump as the cosmetic reward for completing Challenger 3. Official 1.1 notes
That named challenge reward concerns an appearance. The Health Food and full-health trigger above concerns Hump’s effect during a run. Do not treat owning the cosmetic as proof of how much Max HP a particular food pickup will add.
Which problem should I solve before planning food-based growth?
