One of the things that is most annoying about these flora and fauna we pick up is that there is no way to easily know what they can be used to craft, which would help us decide whether to keep them or sell them.
Some possible ideas:
1) Add text to the description of the item, so it appears in the Pipboy. Something like Used for: A, B, C This is fairly straightforward to do using xEdit.
2) Add an option in the Inspect menu using F4SE scripts (like Rename Anything), that shows an interface detailing what it can be used for.
3) Do something like what DEF_UI did for scrapping components. Where when you hover over it shows the components. Except this time it shows the recipes the plant/meat is used in.
Yet another mod left by the wayside just because people didn't notice it.
I'm going to give this a shot. It was a massive missed opportunity when Bethesda crafted an entire storyline about smugglers who were killed by ghouls over the seemingly valuable Mutated Fern Flower, yet in the game, it's worse than vendor trash (Less valuable than corn).
This was the only of my mods that I haven't updated for long because people didn't see to respond anything about it. I'll consider some updated in the future, when I touch the chems again for my overhaul mod.

Always glad to see these kinds of quality of life mods.
