Mudwalker doesn't have support for timers currently.  You could 
possibly trigger it off of another event that occurs in several minute 
intervals, such as area repop or weather changes (depending on your 
mud).  Timer support would be very useful, though :>

Add a lua command like message("Trigger fired - ate food")

If you're using mixed mode, try @@message("Trigger fired - ate food")
