I set the BaseObjectSwapper chance at 85%, meaning only roughly 15% of the food you will find will be clean, forcing you to eat contaminated food, meaning you will need to either clean it using the Food Sanitizer or use Rad-Away, Rad-X... Or just starve to death.

✅ Pros
- Huge download count (92,837) shows it's got a solid following

For Skyrim players who want a subtle post-apocalyptic vibe without overhauling the whole game. If you're into survival or Fallout-style aesthetics, this is a quick way to add some flavor. Skip if you want full control over which items get changed—this is a blanket swap.
