ℓacey ☀️ that's so cool! The way you did it sounds fine, the FF thing is just easier for most people (myself included). If your file doesn't line up like that, you can change the view in your hex editor to display 23 bytes per row (in HxD it's in View > Bytes per row). It sounds like you did it right though!
The flavour thing is so weird. I'm seriously starting to wonder whether it was just never fully implemented as a feature or what. I could understand jars and bowls not appearing to have unique flavours if this were set for the food blob when they're used, but I seriously don't know why babyz wouldn't have different favourite flavours. Weird!
Do your babyz seem to consistently prefer the jars to the bowls?
I love the idea of this, I did Ozma just for fun, and her favourite colour is green and favourite food is beef apparently
And this is everyone elses
Red - Braden, Draca, Esther, Lillith, Melonie, Pluto, Shiloh, Xan
Black - Drake
Green - Cordelia, Sam
Blue - Kallie, Lachlan, Luffy,
Yellow - Lyria, Penny

Also also, babyz favourite foods were either chicken or beef. There must be more to this since I'm sure someone has to love cookies or something
So cool to see your babyz' favourites! I'm really curious about how common (or uncommon) different favourite colours are, a lot of babyz liking red certainly seems to be similar to the rates in petz.
FWIW, we don't know what the flavours in Babyz are. In Petz, people have pieced together the values by looking at what items use them, like the chicken treats having a given flavour which means that flavour is likely to be "chicken". I'm guessing that where the petzy food flavours include stuff like beef, chicken, fish, cheese, etc. the babyz ones probably have meat, oatmeal, bananas, etc. instead. I've tried to figure out the flavour adjective of the food jars and bowls but wasn't able to do that About the cookies, I have no idea if they have their own adjective or if they reuse another flavour (such as oatmeal) or what. It's also possible that they're nobody's favourite flavour, but that they've got high tastiness and edibility or something else that overrides it. That's just speculation on my part, though.
And you've said this on Discord but to explain this to everyone else, the Petz personality program doesn't work with babyz and reads the values all wrong, I guess because the values have a slightly different location in the file. I think they'd range from 0-100, for example, so values over that wouldn't be possible
