Mod/Update Idea: Food Refinement

[KayO]

The simple foods are all well and good, but I think there is potential for some new buildings that use existing food sources to produce 'better' food. Here are some possiblies...

Bakery- Uses corn and wheat to produce bread. Employs a baker.

Butcher Shop- Combines any 2 red meats to make sausages. Employes a butcher.

Dairy- Turns Milk (produced from cattle) into cheese. Employs a cheese maker.

Pastry Shop- Combines wheat with fruit to make pie. Employs a chef.

Confectionary- combines wheat, eggs, and milk to produce cake. Employs a confectioner.

Possible Uses for Refined food- Refined food could be combined with a system of wealth and class. If the ability for citizens to become rich was added, these high wealth citizens will prefer refined food over normal food. Another idea would be to make refined food more effecent. For example, a baker could turn 1 unit of wheat into 2 units of bread. Another possiblity could see refined food as another method for increasing citizen happiness (though you may need to nerf their exisiting happiness boosters to ballence this out).

I like this suggestion! If more buildings were added a whole new level of complexity will emerge!

I think the dev actually made reference to this exact thing, in particular the milk ->cheese idea.
Personally i would love to see this, just makes sense, after all, who eats wheat on its own?

I do eat wheat on own, sort of. :) More of quick snack rather than a meal, of course.

They sell it at the store, it's made by quacker oats. (the wheat by itself).

It's made to be eating with water or milk in a bow.

Will mod tools be added soon? I can imagine all the cool buildings and items to be added.
