Effect Changed Or Different In Iria Dungeons?
Maximum hunger for players is 50%. Likely no one has ever seen it go lower, and the "very hungry" fountain effect only gives max hunger and 0 stamina, forcing you to eat or face a penalty for the rest of the dungeon. If they allowed 100% hunger (100% black bar) from a fountain, your character would be rendered completely useless due to having 0 stamina and almost no stamina regen (stamina regen is incredibly slow "in the black"). This would be too extreme of a penalty for characters in general to be permitted, nevermind non-magic users. Mabi may have difficult parts, but never imposing random chance of impossibility.
Looking at the history, it was originally stated on the page that hunger went to 50%, then someone changed it to include that stamina went to 0%. It is most likely no one really noticed the discrepancy because this is not exactly high traffic information.
Edit: In the interests of clarity and consistency, if anyone does manage to get more than 50% hunger (less than 50% food which actually shows on character page, why use hunger?), it should probably be documented and put on the hunger section of stats
