About the food sanitizer

[.doll]

Why was it removed? I scoured all of the Repcon base and found out that they completely removed it from the game.

"While food sanitizers can be found in Fallout: New Vegas (prior to Patch 1.2.0.31x), they do not have as wide-sweeping an effect as in Fallout 3. The food sanitizer only affects two food items found in the game: junk food and bubblegum. In each case it adds a single point of health restoration when the item is used. Other than this minor effect, food sanitizers serve no real function and may be best sold for profit rather than kept."

The release of Patch 1.2.0.31x removed all instances of the item.

I guess the real question here is why did they nerf it to begin with in New Vegas?
