You all ready to spend millions of gil on one stack of food just to be able to participate in the new content on PUP?
That's the trend that I've seen since the beginning of my time playing this game. When they add something that usually a small group will utilize, the prices get jacked up to all hell. For everyone else that plays multiple jobs, other than their pet job, they'll just stick with those other jobs. Too bad they didn't release this right when SoA came out.
