Ok, this is only somewhat related, but one of my van keys apparently belonged to a cannibal, as i got two good brains.


Although unconfirmed, a clannie reports getting hi meins from these before, so epic-tier drops might occur.--Volc (talk) 21:04, 23 October 2018 (UTC) Confirmed: Landed 'extra-greasy sliders' as my required food. Van keys gave 2-4 copies per key used. I am rolling in burgers, used around 1400 keys and landed 4200 lovely greasy burgers. --Arashmin (talk) 00:07, 19 February 2019 (UTC)

Cool. Sounds like something that maybe should be fixed, though. Out of curiosity, did you pay attention to the distribution of other random drops you got in the process?--Prestige (talk) 01:12, 19 February 2019 (UTC)

I used over 5k van keys and here are my findings

  • The random items themselves are normally distributed
  • When you have an active quest, it is a 50/50 chance of getting 1 or 2 random items
  • The pool of random items is not the entire set of foods, but a limited subset that seems to change from day to day.

It should theoretically be predictable which food items come up. Jick mentioned something to that effect on their podcast a while back but changed the subject because he did not want people to know it. Should be spadable, though. --Extremelywikidude (talk) 14:20, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
I used a bunch more and I think it might simply be something to do with their price in the mall at rollover or something. It's too convenient that I can get crappy - EPIC food both in standard and out but the one factor is that I never get anything that costs more than, say 3-4k meat per unit. --Gausie (talk) 10:11, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
