I don’t know if this is intentional or a bug.
But whenever I go to the chef, it apparently registers my bag as having unlimited fresh waters even though I have none (since you only get 5 or 6 in the current game IIRC). So I’m able to make unlimited leftovers or spicy curry (if I had any inclination to use them, it seems like an odd item lol).
Upon further inspection it seems other people have reported this as well.
