racial reduced consumption
Do smaller and larger races eat smaller and larger meals? Is this part of the built in SM side effect? Or do you have to specifically take something like increased or decreased consumption? These seem to affect the number of meals and not the size of the meal so I don't think this is the best fit. Clothing is smaller or larger as part of the side effects from SM. I should think meal size would be as well.

Re: racial reduced consumption
It's actually moderately realistic to set food requirements based on BL, while humans are a slight anomaly due to high brain food requirements, in general metabolic rates are strongly correlated with muscle and follow similar scaling. This does mean a pixie with ST 5 eats about 25x as much as a normal SM -6 critter (which would have ST 1) but that's hardly a big deal.

Re: racial reduced comsumption
Space however, may disagree with this. Page 92 says that a whole race can have increased or reduced consumption, Of course this seems to be used to adjust how much food the race as a whole eats.
