Good day folks !

I've been experimenting a bit, with goblins suddently at peace (WTF seriously ? I'm just about to kill elven merchants just to get some action here...) and I've found that my legendary cook's longland flour or quarry bush leave roasts sell for ludicrous amounts ! For example, 18 quarry bush roasts sell for 4104* and 19  longland flour roast roughly 4978*.

I'm seriously thinking about opening a fast-food caravan stop here !

The by all means do it!

I'm still thinking it's a bit broken. I can't fathom the number of rock trinkets i'd have to sell to amount the same price.

Try using dwarven syrup.  It's not hard to get roasts worth 10,000+.

This is a known bug/feature with prepared meals, where a large ingredient stack results in an insane price, mostly (ab)used with relation to Quarry Bush Leaves.  I don't use it personally, preferring to just keep digging more stockpile space for the gigantic overflow of food and drink my fort makes while I sell rock crafts.

However if you're going to clean out caravans with food, building a drive-through trade depot seems the stylish way to do it.

Would you like the cat tallow biscuits?

Ok and the goblin roasted leg?

Would you like me to upgrade that to super-dwarf size?

Would you like syrup roasts with that?

Ok you're total will be:*incredibly long list/use your imagination*

i have the same problem with glass. i pump out a lot of blocks, so whenever i make a few serrated disks for traps i always wind up with a few masterpieces at 4-5k apiece

Oh god. That fast food idea is hilarious.

A FB meat stack or a whale meat stack, combined with sweet pod syrup, quarry bush leaves, and probably more syrup, can generate some insanely valuable stacks.  Anything that creates a large stack of edible goods, such as butchering a whale, causes a single high-value ingredient to suddenly become a mountain of high value ingredients.

Aren't such ingredients incredible heavy?

[Girlinhat]

Usually~

So.. if the FB in question is made of metal..

[Girlinhat]

Then it can't be butchered.  I haven't dealt with them recently, but metallic beings tend to avoid being butchered.  Same with snow and ice and fire.

[krisslanza]

The toughest part of butchering a FB is dragging the darn corpse to the butcher's shops before the darn thing rots.

*sigh* Here I was hoping for Heavy Metal Burgers or something..
