Food Quality: where it is and how we'd like it to be

[RubberRats]

IIRC higher quality food has a longer buff duration and MIGHT also give increased healing. To repeat your points, neither of these are particularly noticeable effects.

As for better effects, I have a handful of ideas:
- High quality food gives stronger effects
- High quality food has a higher cap on maximum effect duration
- Very high quality food gives a buff that lasts indefinitely, or until it is replaced by a buff from a different food item
- High quality food contains rare/unique reagents not present in their normal counterparts
- High quality food gives unique/oddball effects like the ones from chicken eggs

I have no idea how many of these ideas can be considered quality, but I'm sure that something can be made from this.
