The Saprovore mutation reduces your odds of becoming nauseous when eating contaminated chunks, and also allows you to eat rotten meat (though at a higher risk of nausea and for less nutrition than when eating fresh meat). This mutation does not provide the benefits of the Carnivore mutation; saprovores cannot eat chunks unless hungry or worse. Saprovores get different messages when food rots in their backpack.
The saprovore mutation only exists as a starting mutation for orcs, ogres, trolls, kobolds, and ghouls, or as a possible demonspawn mutation. It may not be acquired from random mutations, nor may it be lost.
| Saprovore Ranks | Contaminated Meat Nausea Rate | Rotten Meat Nausea Rate | Species |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 33.3% | N/A, inedible | Most species |
| 1 | 6.6% | 20% | Orc, Ogre, some Demonspawn |
| 2 | 2.2% | 6.6% | Troll, Kobold |

- Saprovore 3 is a requirement for a ghoul's ability to recover HP while eating meat, but they are separate abilities. In Wizard mode, ghouls without Saprovore 3 lost their ability to recover HP in this way, while non-ghouls given Saprovore 3 did not suddenly gain the ability.
