This is basically what I was trying to say, but I shortened my post up some to try and fit the 1000 character limit (Don't like having to edit my posts afterwards). I was using the word "demand" to mean the number of people who will buy it, meaning those who feel the stat boost is worth the cost. We could lower the price and encourage more people to buy, but that's not possible without actually taking a LOSS on each synth.

While there are exceptions, like your coil group, most people even in endgame aren't using food, and food use pre-50 is borderline non-existant barring someone just snagging whatever for the xp bonus. For the food market to thrive we either need to have a greater benefit from food so the price will feel worth it, or be able to make food for less time and/or money.
