It seems to me like the two are already essentially the same (one click per food item), except the cauldron is instantaneous, so there's no need to have multiple.

The cauldron is not instantaneous - less than meat rack per item, sure -but progress bar on cauldron takes ~2-3 sec, so you can't even click rapidly to sequentially spam. Just click, wait, click, wait, etc.

The meat rack allows you to scale based on player preference. Don't mind waiting? Just use one rack. Want scale? Build 10+ and cook huge amount in nearly same time as 2 items on 1 rack.

My issue with cauldron is it can't scale. Ppl posted above decent solutions, A x5 button like bronze would be good. Even better would be quantity box and let you make however many seems reasonable for cauldron that size.

I don't expect to be able to type 1000, clearly that has to be a max but also clearly the capacity max of a cauldron that size should not be 1. Even 10 would be low given size of pot vs meal made.
