How do I increase the value of a variable when an object is clicked? (Javascript Question)

I've ran into another problem while creating a virtual pet game. I want to increase the value of hunger when the leaf is clicked and print the value of hunger. What did I do wrong? HTML: <img onclick="increase()" src="https://www.vectorportal.com/img_novi/beautiful-leaf-icon.jpg" class="leaf"> Javascript: function increase() { hunger++= document.getElementById("food").innerHTML=hunger; Here's the link to the code: https://code.sololearn.com/We4BFeQJk50E
