<p>When the Dead of Winter rule book says to spend a food <strong>card</strong>, it doesn't matter what the number on the card is. In this case, if you spent a Food 2 card, it would only count as <strong>one card</strong> and you could only increase a singular die result by one. </p>

<p>The rule you quoted clearly says it raises the dice result by one for each food card, so the dice result is raised by one for each food card.</p>

<p>Page 14 of the rules under Exile says</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>The exiled player cannot spend food tokens to increase his action die results, but may play food cards to increase an action die result by 1 for each food card played rather than carrying out the effect listed on the food card</p>
</blockquote>

<p>The literal reading seems to imply I can only increase a die by 1 for even a Food 2 card.  Is this true or can they increase a die twice or two dice once each with this sort of card?</p>

Can exiled players only increase an unused die once if they spend a Food 2 card?

When the Dead of Winter rule book says to spend a food **card**, it doesn't matter what the number on the card is. In this case, if you spent a Food 2 card, it would only count as **one card** and you could only increase a singular die result by one.
