This marvel of modern culinary preparation is a small cube
with a control panel on one side and a hatch on another. Using
chemical reactions combined with high pressures, a culinary
synthesizer converts UPBs into edible foodstuffs, allowing you
to craft normal food and drink without using the Life Science
skill. Culinary synthesizers are the source of much of the mass-produced
food consumed in the Pact Worlds.
A culinary synthesizer comes preprogrammed with a variety
of simple meals. You enter the type of meal you want into the
synthesizer's control panel and add an amount of UPBs equal
to the meal's price into the cube's transformation chamber; the
synthesizer reconstructs the UPBs into the desired meal. More
advanced culinary synthesizers can be programmed to create
intoxicants and other food products (such as field rations and
R2Es), as well as individual foodstuffs and ingredients, including
analogues of animal products, vegetable products, spices, and
more; this requires a number of UPBs equal to the final price
of the food product or ingredient. You can then combine these
foodstuffs and ingredients into full meals using the craft food or
drink task of the Life Science skill.
A culinary synthesizer is a technological item that is usually
plugged in to draw power from the local energy grid, but
most models come equipped with a manual turn crank that
enables them to function when not connected to an external
energy source. A culinary synthesizer plugged into an energy
grid can create a number of meals (or individual food products)
equal to its level in 1 minute. When you power it using the
turn crank, a synthesizer can convert 1 UPB into food for each
minute that it is cranked.
The quality of food and meals a synthesizer can create
depends on its model, as described below (see page 233 of the
Core Rulebook for more information on food and drink).
You can create up to common-quality meals, minor intoxicants, and any other food or drink with a price of 3 credits or less.
