Is Refrigerator backpack mod worth it in its current state?

i rather have the bigger backpack, food was never an issue in this game for me. I don´t care if something spoils or not, you can easily get more food than you can eat.

It´s actually a matter of time. If you have enough time to gather food, it isn´t worth it. If your playtime is very limited it might be a good idea. I would still go for more weight.

Well, I like NOT having to craft food all the time in order to get bonuses, but Good with Salt is 3 points in luck which are very precious.

High capacity is nice but comes with a downside which might possibly get you killed.

apparently its bugged right now, pulled into my secondary build anyway using full int and good with salt (~70-73 int) ~750%exp bonus

I was using max Good with Salt (GWS) for awhile and it was very nice not to think about food replenishment for days. I'd stock up on my corn soup and cranberry relish. A few weeks ago, I swapped out Good with Salt for the Fridge backpack. It was definitely better than nothing but was also a noticeable increase in spoilage rate. So after a few weeks, I've decided I'm ok with sacrificing a couple of Luck slots to get GWS back in.

It reduces your Energy and Rad resistance.

The more you know. If i die it´s mostly because i am careless or do stupid things. Let´s be honest, once you reach a certain level there isn´t really much that is dangerous anymore. And at the point you get the bigger backpack from the tadpoles you are most likely at a level where you simply don´t die anymore unless you make stupid mistakes.

The point of food preservation is about using the best food/drinks. In general Refrigerator Mods are stupid because of this. You are only going to want or need this if you are being very picky about what you are eating. Because as stated above, if you dont care what you eat actually staying fed is ridiculously easy.. for a pseudo-survival motif kind of game.

I just went high capacity. Since this particular character is stealthy, figured this would be best.
