In my opinion a decent meal is one that leaves a visible lump. Nothing grotesque, just a lump.

"It is foolish to let singleness of purpose deprive one of the joy and delectation of the many wonderful sights and sounds incidental to the quest."

Yeah, but seeing a visible lump means you've ALREADY decided on the meal size! A bit late to make adjustments... lol

Just go with food items that are 1.5x (give or take) the fattest part of the snake and you won't starve or overfeed your snake.
