"eating the seed corn"

One problem i keep experiencing, is when i go to plant greenfruit, the guy carrying the 10 needed to start a farm eats one of them, so i have to make another trip to get more.

It would be helpful to label certain crops as "seed" so that they do not get eaten during transit.

It is NOT the only food in his inventory either.

I've found a decent workaround for this is to put the greenfruit in his backpack and then some other food in their main inventory. this seems to keep them from eating any of it.

I use a skeleton as the engineer for this exact reason.

You can also put the back pack in your inventory and not on your back then they will not access it.
You do suffer the weight penalty, but using a small one is not bad.
