Caravan Food Rotting Inconsistency

[5thHorseman]

I'm sending a caravan out and I'm confused by the food rotting times.

I'm sending one person with 1 Muffalo.
I take 2 lavish meals. It says I've got 3.1 days of food and it will rot in 2.7 days. Fine. I assume this is correct.
I add 75 corn. Now it says I've got 8.5 days and there is no rot time.

Why does adding corn remove the rot time of Lavish Meals? Is it just a display bug or will the food truly not rot? I expect it *should* rot, but I'm not 100% sure how I can see if it *does* rot, considering how little info I seem to be able to get out of the Caravan info screen.

That definitely seems like a bug, considering corn does in fact rot. I've also usually seen the rot time default to the slowest rot, which can be weird for planning, so maybe a change was made there that had an unintended consequence?

I think meals do indeed rot, but since there's still corn when they do, the "rots in x days" information isn't displayed. Is only displayed when food rots and there's nothing left.

Aha! I was then just misreading it as "Food will start rotting in X days."
I wish actually that it said that.
"Starts rotting in X days, all gone in Y days."
