Deep Dish Dungeon food: stop spoilage and burning in the demo
Quick answer
In demo v1013, perishable food spoils over time, Food Baskets extend freshness, and food left on the Rotisserie can burn. The patch notes describe typical spoilage around 20 minutes per item and baskets preserving food for at least an hour. Treat those as developer-reported demo values, not a launch timer.
