People always want me to make Ormachek because its got a 5% xp bonus which would rock if it werent for the fact that it is 84filling. As soon as they see that they run. I have made 40 crates of 5% xp bonus 21grants 84filling and it isnt getting touched. This food either needs to be bioenhanced or given a lower filling so it becomes useful.

This sells for me, not alot but it does sell. Turns out this works for AP as well (atleast thats what my customers tell me), so when they go to grind AP they take one of these to get the AP bonus.

I'm sure that the Devs purposely designed this food to not use BE tissues because they were worried about game balance issues. The filling ensures that people don't "live" on Ormacheck. As it stands now, it's uses are limited but they do exist. I've heard that it's useful to Bounty Hunters when they're grinding Investigation XP. The missions take about 30 minutes any way so the filling really isn't an issue for them.

It is also good for those grinding out ID as they sit so long that the high filling wears off.

The thing is even if it was a 100% bonus, in most cases this becomes fairly useless still. Your not able to drink anything else for 30ish minutes with decent filling on it. If Brandy didn't exist I could maybe see this as a bonus. But when people grind exp they are getting a lot more grants than 20 every 30 minutes.
I have heard the BH thing as well. It might speed it up. Assuming you use this on every mission, this is just like doing 20 missions and getting one free.
I do put this on my vendor as well, but it rarely sells. I might sell 2 crates a week on average.
