I played BLM RDM and all other mages in FF11 and before all the new stuff came out I remember going to battles as a mage always carrying s#itloads of ethers, yagudo drinks and ginger cookies with me to keep up with the MP consumption. So far culinarian and alchemy hasn't been very "needed" crafts so maybe this will be their chance to actually start providing something people will need constantly.
A mage without ginger cookies in 11 many times got a boot in exp party and I kinda liked that you had to take care that you were well prepared if you wanted to nuke etc.

I don't know what foods there are nor how well you gan get your MP back with ethers so I apologise if I am completely wrong with this.
Also... I am in UK so I haven't experienced the nuking etc. yet as the update ended in AM my time and I am work this whole day... Come on time, go faster!!!! lol
yeah its been posted that Ethers are only really useful as emergency buttons since they have such a low MP regen and such a high recast. so, not very useful in boss fights.
