NPC won't give item even with required KOs?

My NPC's won't give items that people want, even when they have the required KOs (1), the script is a LocalScript, the items are inside ReplicatedStorage - Game_Tools - Food, and the NPC is inside the Workspace. The script looks okay, but I'm confused why it won't work. It doesn't even remove 1 KO to give you the item. No errors either.

local function select(p,d)
local ko = p.leaderstats.KOs
if ko.Value >= 1 then
ko.Value = ko.Value - 1
local item = game.ReplicatedStorage.Game_Tools.Food:findFirstChild(d.Name)
local new = item:clone()
new.Parent = p.Backpack
end end
script.Parent.DialogChoiceSelected:connect(select)

Try if this works, I'm a noob myself.

local function select(p,d)
local ko = player.leaderstats.KOs
local item = game.ReplicatedStorage.Game_Tools.Food
local player = script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent -- change the final Parent to Workspace.
if ko.Value >= 1 then
ko.Value = ko.Value - 1
item:Clone().Parent = player.Backpack
end end
script.Parent.DialogChoiceSelected:connect(select)

local function select(p,d)
local item = game.ReplicatedStorage.Game_Tools.Food
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer --Add ".Character" if it is what you needed 
local ko = player.leaderstats.KOs
if ko.Value >= 1 then
ko.Value = ko.Value - 1
item:Clone().Parent = player.Backpack
end end
script.Parent.DialogChoiceSelected:connect(select)
