You get vitamin c to prevent survey.

On the last few survivor shows I have noticed the players eating small limes.

If you find banana, lemons, limes what ever you can eat the. Most tropical islands they film at have these.

I truly believe that the producers are providing some food for the present survivors. I think they give them bare minimum of food so they start to lose some weight. But they don't get super skinny like they used to get.
|
Because if you notice, most reward challanges after the 4-5 episode are food challanges. They never did so many in earlier years.

Plus, sometimes they give them all athletic shoes so they can all compete.

Players kept cutting their feet on coral and getting infected.

On this recent show they gave them all bathing suits.

Done that for several seasons, can't have "little Marcus" poking out on TV.

On this season we haven't seen anybody search for food. But I did notice a pot of crabs.
|
Showed Galu frying fish too.

When Shambo went fishing and didn't find any.... nobody seemed concerned including herself. She chose to go for a swim instead. That tells me they have food.
|
Showed Galu frying fish, so someone else caught some.

Plus when Glau tribe won the challenge they chose the luxeries instead of what they really needed to survive better. I heard somebody say they had plenty of food that they could get. One gal said they had plenty of food that they could get around their camp.

Probst said preseason food was very plentifull on the island if you were willing to do it. At Foa Foa Mick looks like a skeleton and Russell's pot belly is gone. Not eating so well there.

Plus, I notice that there is only one reward/tribal council challenge. That is saving Survivor lots of money by not having to built too many activities.
|
Most likely true, Mark Burnett has said if there's more survivors they will film back to back seasons to save money.

I have also noticed that the shelters are so simply made and it hardly looks like a well built shelter.
|
Preview shows it raining hard and players looking like crap--they will pay for 1/2 ass shelters soon

I guess when a storm comes in and it rains they all run to some type of shelter.lol.

Many a season we see them huddled in their leakly shelters pissing and moaning.
