Sugar Bombs (Fallout: New Vegas)

Sugar Bombs are a consumable item and crafting components in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
Sugar Bombs are mildly useful food items which provide only a small amount of both health and radiation when consumed. Sugar Bombs differ from most other "basic" food items as they provide a limited boost to the player's maximum action points, similar to chems like jet or rocket. Comparatively this boost is small, but stacks with other similar effects while not carrying any risk of addiction.

Sugar Bombs can also be utilized as an ingredient for mushroom cloud, trail mix, and homemade flamer fuel.
