Not just any food, specifically the scout/ranger foods - Travel Biscuits, Jawa Beer, Dweezl, Veghash, Terrata. Are any of these apart from Veghash of any use to a Master Ranger? I'm was just wondering if anyone has tried them. Travel Biscuits seem pointless to a Master. Does Dweezl work? Will it allow me to trap ancient bull rancors? What is the benefit of Jawa Beer (mask scent) and Terrate (camo) to a Master Ranger with bio enhanced clothes? I'd just like some opinions before I shell out on trying this stuff out.

I carried a glass of jawa beer around with me for months and never used it. It's a nice idea, but with camo clothing attachments, and my heavy reliance on brandy, it was never worth using.

/nod to Fodder's excellent unbuffed fighting thread - thats what got me thinking about my stomach 
You seemto have covered all the combat related foods, I was just wondering if anyone had tried the other stuff 
Also, has anyone tried Gralinyn Juice (Creature to-hit bonus)?

Don't like to bump my own thread, but I have done a little testing using some of the foods I mentioned so I thought I'd leave a little feedback for the benefit of others.
I found a Chef who made me some of the following:
Dweezl (Trapping bonus)
Terrata (Camo bonus)
Gralinyn Juice (Creature to-hit bonus)
Please bear in mind these were results for a Master Ranger, Master Rifleman, with fully modded bio clothes (+25 bonus to Camo). I also used a trapping droid.
Dweezl - My traps seemed to miss just as often as when I didn't eat it. Therefore sadly not worth the space in my stomach.
Terrata - Camo broke just as randomly as normal. I also had to wait the same length of time to reapply when it broke (5 seconds I think)
Gralinyn Juice - TBH I did not notice any difference at all. I'm not sure if the creature to hit bonus applies to special attacks or just to autofire, either way I found it hard to notice any benefit, just meant I could not drink more than one brandy/accarragm/garrmorl.
I was rather dissappointed as I always thought tha Chef foods were supposed to stack on top of other mods. Looks like I'll be sticking to my normal diet of accarragm/garrmorl/ahrisa for the time being withveghash and exo wafers/air cakethrown in when needed.
I ended up giving a novice scout friend the Dweelz and he hada very noticable benefit from it. He was able to consistently trap Malkocs while having only 1 box in scout trapping, so this food obviously benefits lower level scouts much more.

Interesting results. Thank you for sharing. This in particular started to interest me being a camo junkie and all.
Last I checked the timestamps for the length of my camo (+123 skill) on Dath it was around 32min. Now I wonder if Terrata would make the period of being camoed longer if it does not break - not that it would be a very common occurence to have it unbroken for such a time, but I traveled to Aurilia and back under one application of camo that time.

*****
nice thread jasco and nice research. I'm interested in this since I'm about to stock all these on my ranger vendor and might do some testing myself once I have the stock (eating the profits... tsk.. I don't know) but it's good to hear. Hope others might share their experiences as well.

When you hit a wall, it's usually a good idea to go around it instead of repeatedly bashing your head into it.
