So we can buy new ones.
Also it could give you some cool wound, like hat-throated which lowers your charisma as you will become uncharismatic because you have a hat in your throat and you can not speak properly. I think it makes perfect sense and should be implemented.
We should actually be able to eat lot of other things as well. Such as cotton, small stones, n ot big ones, but if you chop, or cut. Big ones to small ones. Then you can eat them. Also dirt eating would becool, but i think there was a thread about that already. We could also eat wood, I mean. It would fill your stomach. Like eating sawdust could lower your food satiation and give you hunger debuff. Like increase your hunger meter, but decrease your hunger. If you get what I mean. Not actually make you like hungrier but the meter would go up and up! Maybe if you eat too much sawdust you could become dead. Sawdust poisoning. We should also be able to eat things like shoes, raw meat. Roasted meat we can already eat, but still. I like it raw. Raw meat could give you some big big debuffs, like "raw meat debuff- 20% hhp" or make your stomach hurt. Only way to relief is to eat laxatives which will decrease all your attributes by 50%, and leave a big brown trail behind you. Below you.
Just some thoughts.
