Do we have a perk that increases the duration of the food and drink buffs?

No. Not that I am aware of. There definitely is not a perk and i don't think there is a magazine either or i would be using it.

They make food and drink more effective at filling and hydrating you. They do not increase the duration of any buffs which is what the OP is asking.

oh ok I thought I saw one sometime ago in a youtube video but I don't know if it was a perk or a legendary card or a gear buff.

Nah food lasts as long as food lasts
30 minutes to 1.5 hours dependant on the food type... at least the harder to make foods tend to last longer

they also OFTEN get their time wiped if you frequently hop servers or log off

Yes. Forgot to mention this. I tend to find a server i know i am going to stay on before popping all my food buffs. They can just go *poof* when server hopping. Sux when it is only several minutes into the duration.

You guys are talking about the effects not the actual food when u server hop, right?
Also since I don't have the fridge yet storing food with my alt would that slow down the decay of food. I might have asked this question in the past but the answers I got were pretty mixed and a bit confusing.

we are talking about food that has been consumed

ALL buffs on your character (from cash shop lunch boxes, to cash shop scouts banners, to food to drugs) can and will be lost randomly on switching servers or logging off

As for food

if you store it on your alt, when your alt logs off the server doesn't tick it in the logged off pile asap... it can take up to 30 minutes for it to go oh yeah they logged off a while ago lets stop counting things as going bad

So this can increase the duration of your food condition by keeping it on an inactive alt

every time that alt logs on it will lost 5-30 minutes of food duration

Perfect Bubblegum makes it so your food/drink don't degrade for a full hour. Otherwise, as already stated, no. You usually keep a bunch of water and maybe one type of cooked meat on me, about 30 of each depending on how long I'm planning to play.

Makes it so your food and water BAR don't go down for a period of time

which give almost no bonuses

and has NOTHING to do with extending the duration of active food buffs

That's exactly what I said, just using different words. I didn't say it extended the duration. I said they don't degrade. That means they don't go down.
