A common processed food that prioritizes cheap and easy nutrients over flavor. Many space stations and urban colonies turn food waste into nutrient paste for consumption by poorer residents. Also commonly consumed by quarians, and those without easy access to better foods, such military personnel, spacers and first-wave colonists.
Pyjak Meat
Usually relegated to varren feed due to its stringy texture and unappetizing taste, but is commonly eaten by the poorer population on infested space stations. Also used for sauce in traditional krogan cuisine.
Space Cow Meat
One of the most common meats in colonial space due to the easy of breeding space cows in varied environments. Somewhat similar to terran beef in texture and flavor, although most humans prefer the real deal.
Varren Meat
Traditionally consumed by krogan, varren meat is popular in the Terminus, especially in jerky, kebab and char-grilled forms. Generally not sold in Citadel Space. Has a gamey taste with elements of fish.
Drugs
Creeper
A powerful new hallucinogenic drug. Creeper forms as a dust-like mold on some strains of the high-nutrition vine ossilbir which have been grown on the human colony world of Sathur. Consumption of small quantities of this mold causes the user to experience "potent visions" or "colorful daydreams", allegedly with no ill side-effects. Since creeper was not discovered until after Sathur started growing ossilbir in late 2185, medical experts have not had a chance to study the long-term effects of using the drug.
Halex
A controlled substance which induces heightened senses and extreme euphoria in those who dose themselves with it. Hallex is taken in pill form.
Minagen
An illegal chemical that enhances biotics. It is delivered in gas form, and is red in color. Inflated confidence and aggression accompanies the enhanced biotic powers. Large doses can be lethal.
Mindfish
A hanar drug. A fish with hallucinogenic skin oil that is consumed. The effects are stronger when consumed by other species.
Omega-Enkaphalin
A biotic suppressant secretly developed by Cerberus.
Red Sand
A stimulant with biotic-enhancing properties. Its abuse is disproportionately high among non-biotic friends and relatives of biotics, often out of a misguided desire to understand what their loved ones are experiencing. Red sand was originally created by criminal triads on Mars from refined element zero, and takes its name from the planet. When taken nasally, red sand creates a brief but intense euphoria, and gives the user very short-term telekinetic biotic abilities. Side effects include red-tinting of the user's vision, discolouration of the teeth and longer-term withdrawal symptoms. Red sand is normally sold in small bags. The slang expression for using it is "dusting up" or being "sand-blasted". Only humans are susceptible to its effects.
Videlicet
A complex synthetic chemical that improves short-term memory and mental focus in humans.
