Nope!

You can eat ALL THE THINGS with no repercussions. You can eat whatever you want, as much as you want, with no ill effects.

BUT

You need 12 hours of sleep per night. After hour 12 of being awake, you will involuntarily fall asleep.

I have trouble getting sleep due to the fact that I experience longer hours than anyone else, anyways.

You get to become a Reality Warper,

BUT

You have to abandon all your family and belongings, and anything that might tie you to money. And basically die to the world you thought you knew.

BUT

They will colonize a new planet, and be lauded as heroes.

You can eat at your favorite restaurant chain for free for the rest of your life, and every franchisee that exists now will remain until you die.

-BUT-

Everything you eat at this restaurant has triple the calories while otherwise tasting the same, so you'll have to eat less or get morbidly obese.

So. If I were to do this, I would most likely eat there (Beau Jo's Pizza, it's a Colorado thing) three times as often. If the food had three times as many calories, I'd have to stick to my normal amount of meals there. I'd get my normal amount of meals there, for free. I WOULD SLAM THAT BUTTON SO HARD

You get the cutest, sweetest, most well-behaved kitten ever, cute enough to become a guaranteed internet sensation.

You get a cat allergy, too. Cat allergies are allergies to specific proteins in cat dander and cat waste, so someone has to clean the litterbox and vacuum every day or you'll be a boogery mess and possibly break out in hives.

You are now a Yoshi! (With the color of your choice.)

The first thing you must do is live the events of the first Yoshi's Island game and make the journey to rescue Baby Luigi while carrying Baby Mario all the way, and Mario will cry whenever he's knocked off your back as in the games. (Though you make the journey with seven other Yoshis as well.)

No way, Jose. Even if I made it through Yoshi's Island, I'd still be used as a jumping point to get to a platform.

Pass. Intriguing, but too much to do before I settle down to practice my favorite holiday forever.

You get all the true companions you ever wanted, a fairy tale spouse, a messianic generation of politicians, the release of a generation of gamemakers and moviemakers catering just to you, and you're even on first name basis with god.

BUT

All of the aforementioned hate your guts. Whenever you leave, the "true companions" and the spouse, talk about you as the lowest of the low, while the spouse cheats on you every chance xe gets. The politicians' sole motivation to do well is to keep you healthy and fed so that they and your neighbors never have to hear from you again. The game and movie makers spend all their backroom meetings insulting your demographic and fill their games with Easter eggs that subtly insult you. Even god doesn't want to deal with you. Instead of heaven or hell, xe just sticks you in a Lotus-Eater Machine cut off from everyone else for eternity.
Not that you'll ever know. The above is still true. You never catch anyone making fun of you and your spouse never catches anything or gets pregnant or brings drama and is so warm and loving while you're around the house. Your true companions try to include you in everything when you're around and give you fulfilling and respectful company. You never get the easter eggs are insulting you, and the LEM feels like heaven.

-press- I already prefer to live in my deluded land of dreams anyway. At least I'll have a false reason to get up in the morning now.

You could change the HSV (color scale) of any object. It could be individually, such as a particular object a friend's holding. It could be far away, like a star. It could even be a broad range which would allow you to change the color of the sky. You'll keep this power until you die.

-but-

You could only see in black and white for the rest of your life. You could still change objects into colors, and everyone else could see it, but you would only see differences in brightness.

You could live 100x as long as a normal human.

-but-

You would be twice as slow...not in terms of any kind of mundane IRL disability, you would simply be moving at a different time scale than everyone else. Conversations would be harder, you'd never win a race, and so on.
