Curing Scurvy + Ideal Solution

[DougInTheBox]

So I can confirm that certain food other than citrus will indeed cure scurvy. If I use a banana on one of my pirates, one level of scurvy is removed. Also, when a pirate eats watermelon, one level of scurvy is also removed. Once I got rid of my barrel of fish and replaced it with watermelon only, all 6 of my pirates went from level 2-3 scurvy to no scurvy at all within about 15-20 minutes.

Now, the problem is that this pretty much makes all food other than watermelon either useless or inefficient (price per serving). What would be AWESOME is if cooks could combine foods to make a meal. Like fish/meat + fruit/vegetable. That way, pirates can make use of the fish and meat they obtain, plus add some "vitamins" to their plates as well (not sure why the devs keep putting vitamins in quotes, but I'll do so as well).

list of foods that take off one lvl of scurvy that i have found are watermelon, citrus, fruit, sourkraut, banana, coconut.

yeah with the addition of barrels, other foods in the shop are pretty much worthless unless the shop runs out of watermelon.

fish still have worth as they are free if you have a fisherman, so that means you can diversify their diet when you're low on watermelons.

I totally agree. cooking with recipes would be an awesome idea. I mean, what kind of cook only cooks one ingredient at a time?
