Here is a list of the durations of all edible foods and drinks in EQ.
The categories are:
0-5 snack/whistle wetter.
6-20 meal/drink.
21-30 hearty meal/refreshing drink.
31-40 banquet size meal/lasting drink.
41-50 feast/flowing drink!
51-60 enduring meal/enduring drink!
61-240 miraculous meal/miraculous drink!
Food/drink with a duration of 1 will last 144 seconds in real-time, which represents 48 minutes in game-time. Food/drink with a longer duration will last a multiple of that time, up to an estimated 9 hours 36 minutes for Twice Brewed Constitutional (not counting Innate Metabolism). The game keeps track of the duration accurately, but only checks for new consumption every 46 seconds or so real-time, so there will often appear to be a delay before the next food/drink in your inventory is consumed. The Innate Metabolism AA reduces your consumption rate of both food and drink, effectively making your food/drink last almost two and a half times as long, and it also increases the time between consumption checks from 46 seconds to around 112 seconds.
You don't eat/drink while zoning, and there is a short delay after zoning before you resume eating/drinking. Dying is just another form of zoning, it has no additional affect on your hunger/thirst. There is a bug that can cause you to eat/drink too much if you go linkdead just as you're getting hungry/thirsty.
Food/drink lasts half as long if you click it instead of eating/drinking it normally. Food/drink is used three times as fast if you're on a horse or drogmor. Drink (but not food) is used twice as fast in desert zones such as Oasis of Marr and Southern Desert of Ro (six times as fast on a horse/drogmor). Active traders and buyers in the bazaar don't eat/drink at all.
Food you've already eaten (or clicked) does not add stats. Only the top food in your inventory, ready to eat next, adds to your stats. That food won't be consumed until the previous food's duration runs out and you become hungry; if you keep clicking on other food before you get hungry, the top food will continue to give its stats but will never be consumed. The same applies to drink.
There are 1319 types of food and 113 types of drink. I believe all known edibles (fished, foraged, summoned, purchased, dropped, quested, groundspawned, player-made, or GM-made) are listed, including items that used to exist but are no longer available and items that could exist but have never yet been produced, up through the Dragons of Norrath expansion. Almost all of the information comes from Lucy at Allakhazam (lucy.allakhazam.net), EQItems (eqitems.13th-floor.org), or EQ Traders Corner (www.eqtraders.com). None of the items actually have parentheses -- all the comments in parentheses are my notes. Items with a question mark (?) have not had their duration verified.
