A GM friend of mine came up with this one:
TROLL KNUCKLE
This is an item you might find at a seedy side stall in the local bazaar, stewing away in a pickle jar. It functions off the idea that Trolls are weak to acid, and our stomachs are full of acid (relatively weak, but acid nonetheless). Trolls also regenerate. Stomach acid is weak enough to eat away at the flesh at roughly the same rate the Troll is able to regenerate. The result is your body digesting the Troll Knuckle at the same rate it regenerates itself, allowing you to never have to eat again.
MECHANICS: Eat Troll Knuckle. Make Fort Save DC 25. Failure means you throw up the knuckle. If you pass the Knuckle stays down...for now. In 24 hours, make another Fort Save DC 15. Failure means you upchuck the Knuckle. Make both Saves and now you dine on the flesh of Trolls.

For more fun: Every 5 days, make a DC 20 fort save. If you fail, the troll knuckle has overwhelmed your stomach acid. Now there is a troll hand in your stomach... It begins to claw its way up your gullet :)
Why am I picturing Alien? :-D
how about the second failure causes the player to go insane and slowly aquires the half-troll template from fiend folio.
A very clever idea!
Fun idea but i think this was adressed in an article somewhere. If you eat troll flesh you have a chance of catching a disease called Rot guys or blue guts or something like that. Its why trolls donot eat eachother.
