Individualistic Custom Food Creation


The idea of a custom Food System could either be included within a big update that adds a lot of farming and "ingredient" items or in a smaller update that only uses currently available food items and ingredients.

The concept is a Food creation system with various ingredients and ingredient slots, not all of them changing the item itself, but all of them adding to the food items saturation level and/or increasing a food items buffs.
Said buffs come from "sauces" the player can add to their food item that are a mix of certain ingredients and potions and apply them to the created food item.
Food items can receive up to 3 buffs depending on their saturation level.
Food items with high saturation can absorb more buffs, but the downside is that the ingredients that add the most saturation to a food also give the weakest buffs, thus giving more effects, but making them not as strong as when used together with ingredients that offer less saturation, but stronger buffs.
A healthy mix of ingredients is the best food for a balanced diet, and buffs!

Along with ingredients, this would invite the expansion of brewing and potion effects as well or adding ingredients that give effects on their own!
With many recepies and wide customisation food could be a expression of individuality in a tasty way!

From individual novelty to a adventurers power food, I believe this would be a great addition in some form and a lasting fun and impactful feature for the entire community!

    To give an example: Making a meaty tuna sandwitch with most fish allows for 3 buff slots, but bread doesnt increase any buff and fish only gives a fairly small buff to water breathing.
    A mix of meat and some vegetables would provide 1-2 slots, but the healthy ingredients would give better buffs, like extending an effects time or power even.

    Most food Items or food Item groups would be inherently better at some things then others.
    Some inherently buff some or all included potion effects, others give very high base saturation.
