Acrid Delight

1st-level transmutation (ritual)

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: Touch

Components: V, S, M (a piece of food)

Duration: up to 1 hour

Classes: bard, druid, pale master, wizard

You touch a piece of food (weighing up to 5 lbs), rotting it from the inside, but maintaining its original taste, texture, appearance and smell. If the piece of food is then eaten by a creature within one hour, the creature must make a Constitution saving throw or take 2d8 poison damage and become poisoned until it completes a long rest. On a successful save the creature takes half the damage and is not poisoned. If the food is not eaten within one hour, it succumbs to its rotten nature and spoils.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for each spell slot level above 1st.
