Old World Gourmet

Old World Gourmet is a perk in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on, Dead Money.

Effects
The Old World Gourmet perk provides three main effects.

First, the perk increases the amount of health given by the various types of so-called "Snack Food" by 50%. This increase is done by modifying the duration of health restoration; for example, the health restoration effect of junk food is changed from +1(5s) HP (1 hit point-per-second for 5 seconds) to +1(7s) HP (1 hit point-per-second for 7 seconds).

Second, the perk adds a health restoration effect to wine, vodka, and scotch, as well as the ccotch variants irradiated scotch and Jake Juice. The effect is the same for all: +2(10s) HP (2 hit points-per-second for 10 seconds).

Finally, the perk modifies the player's chance of addiction, reducing it by 25%. This is a multiplicative change, meaning that (for example) items which normally have an addiction chance of 10% will instead have an addiction chance of 7.5%. This change applies to all sources of addiction, even those items not otherwise affected by this perk.
