Sugar Bombs not showing when cooking

[Ilyrian]

I have 23 boxes of Sugar Bombs in my inventory, but when cooking Brain Bombs the total shows as ZERO. It's BUGGING me...fix it plz.

[Loucifer]

two types of sugar bombs, the ones that look beat up and the pristine looking ones. only the beat up boxes will work.

Yarp. You need Irradiated Sugar Bombs for the cooking recipes.
Pristine sugar bombs do not work

[Good Old Jim]

Wish there was a way to irradiate them. Its kinda dumb.

How stupid is this, why couldn’t they just make one type of sugar bomb?!?

Because the food found in sealed, clean areas (like vaults) shouldn't be dirty and irradiated, while the food found out in the environment exposed to radiation and dirt shouldn't be clean and pristine. So two different versions of the same food makes since. They just didn't put an appropriate keyword on the clean version to make it usable. Its just a poor decision, like the decision to require boiled water to cook most foods and so you can't use purified water.
