It just annoys when you are walking around bloated and find yourself a fire giant king corpse (or blink dog, or something ...), and all you can do is wait until it rots.

If IRL I came across a corpse which would give me boost to my Strength-attribute, I would stick fingers to my throat and empty my stomach so there would be room for some muscle-growing meat!

So ADOM-chars should be able to do that too ... perhaps a willpower of 15 is needed or something (not everyone can stuck fingers in their throat). And don't tell me there are stomacemptias, cause they bug: they cannot be eaten when you're bloated.

Of course this is a joke, but what do you think? :)

It's very hard to be humble, when you are great.

Drakelings can already throw up at will, and it even damages monsters!
If you're feeling happy, don't worry, it'll go away.

If you found a strength-raising corpse IRL, do you really think you'd puke to be able to eat it? I find the idea of eating corpses off the ground just a little revolting, strength raising or not. I don't need strength that badly. I rarely have to fight off hordes of chaos monsters.

I wait to be un-bloated, and to preserve the corpse, just keep dipping it in holy water. When something rots, it goes from blessed to uncursed, or uncursed to cursed. I wait for it to be cursed, dip in holy water. Of course, only if the corpse is worth the holy water you use.

I think that's how it works, anyway...

I think there are a few herb-related solutions... but then I think you'd need to be less than bloated to take advantage of them.

Maybe if there was a mirror tool, and your appearance was below 3...

I don't supposed a cursed scroll of satiation would do it?

They say that cooked corpses rot more slowly than others. They also say that heat is utilized in a cooking process...

Once you id a corpse (by scroll or blessing it) it will show its status as it rots (becomes uncursed or cursed)

Mewto, if you don't have detect item status, when the corpse is described as rotten it is cursed (slightly rotten is uncursed). Once dipping it in holy water it will, as any other item be described as blessed and then the status will be shown as normal as it rots.

Although, an uncursed corpse COULD be described without any modifiers; when it rots it goes straight to "Rotten".
