    Housing foods

    Please make it so that we can tell what stat bonuses the Assorted Fruit and other housing culinary food will give us before we click yes to eat it.

    But it does give you that information. At least, they do on the PS3. I can't name them off the top of my head, but the fruit has around 5 different bonuses.

    While on the subject of housing foods, could we have some foods that help Crafters/Gatherers a bit more? I've noticed that all the food buffs are exclusively for DoW/DoM classes/jobs.

    Hello!

    The team is actually planning to make it so the stats are displayed, but unfortunately I don't have a specific implementation time frame to share with you just yet. I'll be sure to keep you posted!

    I just want the option to turn off the ability to eat them. I get that it's nice to put down food that the whole FC can benefit from, but people don't actually use it like that. Instead they, for lack of a better description, sit down and "RP eat" until everything is gone. Steak? Eat. Sandwich? Eat. Steak again? Eat. And they do this until all of the food is gone in one sitting. Wine? Drink all 10 servings. "lols look how dwunk I am!".

    Agreed, somehow my kittens(company rank) kept drinking all the Chilled Red that I placed out for decoration. And all I'm left with are empty wine bottles... orz

    Do any of the housing foods even have good stats? I had only skimmed through them and they all looked pretty bad so I've always just considered it decoration and never eaten the ones I've seen.

    The first and second stats on the food are relatively on-par with other foods of the same level as the furnishing, but the third stat is replaced with a gear durability stat that doesn't appear on any normal foods. Since most don't care much about durability, this makes each serving of food somewhat inferior compared to regular foods of that level.

    However, you DO get ten servings of food for one synth, and while that synth typically includes several other completed food synths to create (the Afternoon Tea Set, for instance, requires Chamomile Tea, Pineapple Ponzecake, a Honey Muffin, and an Acorn Cookie as ingredients), that's still a lot of food compared to the ingredients used.

    I see them as useful in much the same way as crafting furnishings: useful for when you're leveling up, but pretty much just decorative for folks already at 50.

    Now either you are trolling, can't read, or too lazy to look yourself. Either case, the stats are clearly listed on the housing meals. There are some valid suggestions (like the DoH/L housing meals but OPs initial post is invalid.

    Once the items are placed though you can't see what the stats are. Its just a small QoL change.
