I'm not too good at making layouts look good, or I would have done something here already.
How about a row that says how much energy you get on average per hunger from which the energy expended to craft the item is included in the calculation (subtracted from the total energy you gain on average before dividing by hunger). Basically, and probably more understandably: (Average energy gained - Energy cost to make)/Hunger. Seems like a very (if not the most) useful row to me. See below link for example.
Hai, I madez us thiz: http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=rohFVerrluWWMfcSYePf0vw&single=true&gid=0&output=html
That's the rows I'd like to see (plus an effects row of course). Don't see a lot of point in having "Max …" rows. Would love to have it sortable by row category like many of the tables in the KoL wiki are. Like: http://kol.coldfront.net/thekolwiki/index.php/Best_Foods_(adventures)
No idea if that's doable in this wiki.
