Problem is that you have to "win" at RNG two three times in a row.
First you have to successfully roll for the mechanic to kick in the first place.
Second, you need to have the mechanic select a high quality crop and not a crap quality one. Assuming people with top quality crops don't make an entire minimap's worth of flax fields, chances are that you hit one with crap quality.
Third, the first two must have happened to a crop that actually propagates it's quality to other industries, ie. Flax or Hemp through plant fibres. Straw-producing crops do get honorable mention. (Straw Twine is only a generic string, requires multiple straw and has crafting softcap.) Other crops benefit industry-grind only through compost if they're higher than meat you can reliably acquire through hunting.
If you have Sprucecap standards, you might be able to cook nice food from q400 beetroots or turnips, but I'm assuming that with SnuggleSnail standards any food using either ingredient is "useless LARP food."
