Exactly.I've seen only a morning coffee mentioned. In this case, if Steve went to retrieve the meat without having any food before, he might have a sudden drop of the sugar levels in his blood. Walking through the soggy, uneven terrain burns a lot of calories and hypoglycemia can bring disorientation and confusion, which is a very bad thing when you are in a middle of a very vast and very inhospitable nothing.
He could have been burning calories like crazy and not taking any in. This would mess with his brain. It may have been messing with his brain before he even left camp.
