I honestly thought all these recipes were basically for novelty. Is there a reason to make anything aside from Bacon and Eggs, Grilled/Charred Meat (early game), and Steak and Potatoes? It made sense with wellness, now, as long it raises stamina it's good enough for me lol.

That's why I brought up the idea of certain foods, or combinations of foods, having longer-lasting saturation buffs, so that your stamina decreases slower. I think that would help make certain recipes more beneficial.

You all have to consider this is Early Experimental release.They will balance things, ad more, etc . i would like to see a more complex food system, with more effects given to food and drinks, but no farming/cooking simulator needed.

What's disappointing are the Hobo recipes. You would think that recipes like hobo stew would be lower down compared to beef and vegetable stew. Rotting meat is, well, not exactly a quality ingredient and can be much easier to get.

i'd prefer to see those as lower recipes also, you want to strive to cooking steak and potatoes, not flesh of the fallen

(...) flesh of the fallen

So metal!

I've wanted foods to restore max health, rather than heal 'current health'. it's silly how dependant we are on a diet of wads of cotton everytime we get banged up.

There's a reason to make Steak and Potatoes???

You are desperately trying to use up the 1500 Meat in your box aren't you?

I perked up my Slow Metabolism to either 3/5 or 4/5, can't remember off hand, but I honestly feel like I rarely even have to eat anymore.

Being from the Southeast US, I know a thing or two about proper cornbread, and let me tell ya, corn meal and water alone does NOT equal cornbread...it makes a frisbee. Since we ain't got buttermilk in the vanilla game, I'd say we need to add eggs to the cornbread recipe. Now I know what y'all are gonna say, that eggs are better used for other recipes, such as bacon and eggs. I want y'all to look at that picture of cornbread...does it look like a whole cake of cornbread? I'd suggest making the cornbread recipe produce a whole cake of cornbread instead of a slice. Up the ingredients, maybe require 5 corn meal, 1 egg, 1 water, and have it give the player better saturation.
Then add a new item to the game, a bowl of grits, and have its recipe be just 1 corn meal and 1 water. Maybe even have it so that when eaten with bacon and eggs, you get longer-lasting saturation bonus that prevents max stamina from decreasing as quickly. Just some idears from a fella who knows all about them bacon, eggs, n grits y'all. And don't make them grits the instant kind..."no self-respecting southerner uses instant grits." (10 points to whoever knows what movie that quote is from).

So the 2 yutes go into the store for a can of tuna and...zombie apocalypse.

You like your grits creamy or al dente?

Meals of exclusively cornbread and goldenrod tea had their day, let it go

People on about meat stew, it was never the best thing for maxing wellness out, see above, add in popping meds to add thirst to drink more, along with stabbing yourself for blood packs in between for a total wellness program.

Meat stew was great for when you needed to top off quickly, like your starving ass been out looting all day and just got back to base 2 minutes before horde and you realize what a terrible host you are.
