It's the lack of knowledge about culinary in game that is keeping you going...

No need to get all creative and make up new systems for the system you have no clue about.
How about instead of spamming forums with your ideas that make no sense and are not helpful in any way, you go and try cooking a thing or 2? Maybe even get your CUL to lvl2? or maybe lvl50? and then come back when you at least find a flaw in that system cause for me it's kinda perfect as it is and i don't see why someone that doesn't cook at all (no, few sea sand synths in beta don't count) should tell devs that it's not good enough for him before even trying it.
As for saying that your idea is complicating things, i didn't mean only for cooks, but for every player that would have to research lots of new recipes, having lots of new options, and would be forced to test various foods in different situations till one would find out what is the best, and then only eat the best food, making all the rest of your recipes unwanted crap that nobody makes nor eats. In other words your silly ideas would take devs lots of work hours for absolutely no reason, cause there would be still the same amount of foods used... Time to make a new thread, don't you think?
