Analysis

Good for caravans as they can't get recreation while moving otherwise, and only slowly get social recreation when stopped. It lasts forever and improves mood so its also a good emergency food supply to break out when times are tough and mood is at risk.

Its also not a bad trade good as its expensive and its easy to get a lot of it when facing late game infestations, or can even be farmed.

Does cooking maintain recreation boost?
