Laser Asparagus

Long ago, in the pioneer times of the Novakids after the destruction of their progenitor star and the beginning of their settlements, one settlement was met by an Apex scientist, seeking to discover new civilizations, like the Novakids themselves. He shared some of his technology, among them were holographic projectors and a small field radiation emitter, and a small magnetic field generatorl. After his departure a young Novakid farmer took some of the projectors and emitters and tinkered with them. He aimed to create a "crop" that would strengthen Novakid natural magnetic fields and feed them at the same time. He succeeded when he was the first to eat a spear of it and tested it on the first Novakid Space Train as fuel.

This mod adds a new crop called Laser Asparagus. It can be planted on un-tilled tiles, so you can have a garden growing behind your captain's chair. It can also be used both as food and fuel, giving 100 units per spear. You can buy the seeds at Terramart or Tabula Rasa
for 200 Pixels.

It sound like a load of crap, but I got the idea after having a dream about it. It involved exactly what this mod does, except that the icon for the food item is an entirely green version of the seed. Feel free to suggest recipes.
