Suggestion: Soul Food rework for Deep Frier Food

[ThatOtherGuy54]

Currently, the Deep Frier foods are for the most part not worth it. How about we increase both the calorie count and morale bonus. Perhaps quadruple them? Then rework 'soul food' into a more serious debuff and give it to all deep frier food. The soul food debuff now grants the 'artery blockage' disease. The duplicant gradually loses health  and die after eating too much soul food.

Kinda disagree I think Squash Fries are most certainly worth it, I also think nosh snacks are also worth trying since you dont need tofu.

I'm confused. All of the deep frier foods are worth it. Tallow is dirt cheap to manufacture (one singular spigot seal produces 43 duplicants worth of squash fry grease when happy and fed.) and the recipes on it are all just X common food + tallow to increase calories and quality significantly. You can make nosh beans even less water consumptive than they already were (significantly less than most options, and this isn't even considering using Floxes for the ethanol) and you can make fries. What's not to like? I agree with the take that the deep frier should have one +5 recipe but as it stands +4 is good enough considering the surrounding stats of the deep frier

The problem is that the dehydrator requires food quality of at least +5. (Actually that's not it, it simply only works with gas range recipes – however, the deep fryer is locked behind the same tech).

It would be nice to have at least 1 dehydrator worthy recipe, so that we are not stuck with pemmican as the only space food we can make on Ceres.

All the reason why we should have branching cooking tree, buffed spice grinder, and the long missing T3 cooking skills.
