I buy only stew because it gives me the largest amount of energy and I don't have to eat 450 of them to refill my tank... so can somebody tell me what they see as the benefit to multiple kinds of food varied only by energy return, for the consumer? I understand the iMG use for the person cooking it, but I've been thinking about this for awhile, and I'm not sure what the draw of something that returns 50 energy is to the consumer if they can eat something that returns 150, for instance.
I know there are a few buffs- Hearty Feeling, Chocolate High, Garlic Breath and Stuffed are all that come to mind- but by and large, food seems to mainly be divided by energy return.
Any thoughts?
