Food Question

[Sartori]

Hello

I made some Rolanberry Lassi today, it gives a perception boost. 12% up to 15. I tried it on my miner and botany 50 and didn't get any tastes from it, just well fed. In fact I tried all the perception food and nothing...

I even took my perception down to 8 with a weathered axe and no perception gear on, and still no tastes...

Whats causing me not to get any benefits from the food?

Thanks for your replies

You only get the "tasty/divine/etc" boosts when you get closer to capping out the bonus from it. If my math is correct, you need 125 Perception before the food in order to get the max +15 from Rolanberry Lassi, which would result in you getting the "divine" bonus. When you wear no gear and have 8 perception, the food is only giving you 1-2 Perception, which is far from 15 and won't give you any tasty/etc message.

You are getting benefits from the food, you just aren't capping out the bonus. Try Rolanberry Cheese or Cream Cheese, they have bigger % bonuses but cap out with lower perception, but they might give you more Perception than the Lassi does.
