Foods That Sell Slow at The Auction House
These synthable items below I have found sell somewhat slow, with the occasional return, but will sell and for pretty good profit at the Auction House. I suggest selling most of these cooking items at the Jeuno AH, however pies, sushi and cookies will sell well in San d'Oria, Windurst and Bastok too. The more rare foods, such as Snoll Gelato (and HQs), and high level HQ Beastmaster jugs will sell better in Jeuno.
