The food sanitizer is a miscellaneous item in Fallout: New Vegas which was initially present in the game, but was removed by patch 1.2.0.31x.
Characteristics[]
Food sanitizers 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 function and would be best sold for profit rather than kept.
Locations[]
Prior to patch 1.2.0.31x, five food sanitizers could be found in the basement of the REPCONN test site. Four were found on the table in the room marked with "Food" signs, with the fifth found at the bottom of the stairs leading to the lower floor of the basement. The release of patch 1.2.0.31x removed all instances of the item.
Notes[]
- Food sanitizers are also set up to work with Nukalurk meat, another legacy item which is not present in normal New Vegas gameplay.
- Carrying more than one food sanitizer will negate the limited bonuses it provides. The item's effect is only active if one and only one is present in the player's inventory.
- Food sanitizers also work with fresh fruit and vegetables.
