Okay, so I got around to editing the first post based on what everyone has said and common sense (i.e. everything that came solely from trade is probably low in supply by now because we're past mid-Winter). Everything in red are things that have unanswered questions, but in terms of supply questions...
I think we can assume the supply for everything is very low, because 1. no one has said anything to suggest otherwise 2. this winter has been harsher, 3. trade was cut, and 4. Winter is almost over, meaning a lot should have been eaten thus far. Food supplies should be worryingly low, and rationing should be seriously considered as an option around this time.
I would like to have myself or a GM or whoever go into the kitchen this weekend, if not this Monday, and sort the items in there out, based on what has been said in this thread and educated guesswork. I'm talking named items and signage, and getting rid of anything that should've rotted, been eaten, or wasn't accounted for here. This needs to be done as soon as possible, because this Winter without trade is supposed to be important for the server-wide plot.
But at the same time, I would like to give people time to add in any additional information that might help us get the food stock looking accurate. Did your character have a terrible harvest thanks to honey badgers? Did they steal tons of food while no one was looking? Can you tell us where the mystery mushrooms came from? Again, the questions that need answering are in red on the first page.
Were I able to get on this earlier, I would've given everyone a week, but in a week Winter's over, and the situation will probably look different. So unfortunately, you all have until 12:00AM Monday the 27th, GMT (in London) to turn any last minute details in. That's 7:00PM Sunday the 26th, GMT-5 (in New York) and 11:00AM Monday the 27th, GMT+11 (in Sydney). If you don't put any additional info in, we'll just use what you've told us thus far.
Until then, everyone assume that your character is being fed, but if they're serving themselves food, they should notice the worrying lack of it.
