My tests with pikatta pie and air cake revealed the following: They each give a damage mitigation of 50% of thier listed power over thier full duration. So 50% pie gives a 25% damage reduction for 20m or so. Last night I ate both, however the benefits did not stack. The mitigation from the pie was the only onein effect. I have no idea if they actually affect the mobs ability to hit you. However...since the damageis related to accuracy vs defense (you do more damage when you have higher accuracy vs a set defense), then this effect is not a true damage mitigation, but a result of you having a higher defense, thus the mob does less damage to you. So, they are not stacking, the pie bonus is replacing the air cake bonus because it is the greater one.

Anybuddy try to stack synthsteak and exo-protein wafers? I won't be able to log in for a few hours but ifwe can stack both of them (and I'd be pretty surprised if we can't) we'd know how they stack. Like if the damage reduction is the sum of the two foods or if they work one after the other (the product of the two).
Anywho, I'll check it out when I can log in, but if anyone wants to do all the work for me that'd be swell

Well it seems different then for different foods.
Corellian Ale did stack with Crispic, the added Accuracy was shown in the Ctrl-C sheet. I did not test if i do more damage or hit better. Don't think in the 50 seconds the Corellian Ale lasts you can get enough hits anyway to say for sure.
If the damage mitigration of Pikatta and Aircake is a result of higher defenses it might either be hardcapped somewhere or the diminishing returns are so strong already, that you don't notice an increase. Of course that just Pikatta overwrites Aircake is also possible.
Which all of them, of course make stacking Pikatta and Aircake not a viable option, but I'd be careful to say "nothing stacks"

I didn't have time to check indepth, but I'm about 90% sure that synthsteak and exo-protein wafers do not stack. You can eat both at the same time, and you get the little icon for both under you name, but the steak didn't kick in until after the wafers expired. I'll look into it more tomorrow, but it looks like either the steak just overwrote the wafers or it did nothing but tick away its duration until the wafers wore off.
