Can anyone explain this flavor text for used bait?

Purpose as Title states:

Generic text used to indicate items that have no other use?

(i.e, this item has no function. Just sell it.)

This was added after the fact; to my knowledge it never told you to sell them. Ergo it was *added*, deliberate.

Probably had to make used bait worth 0 cause of all the master anglers causing inflation in the economy.

Yeah, so probably some intern was assigned "Stick this text on everything with no use" and did it... not noticing if the item has any actual sale value or not.

I love devs sense of humor

I sell everything with zero value to vendors, even though I get no gold in return, because it's easier/faster to 'sell' it all by double clicking quickly than it is to delete them one stack at a time.

I took the icon as a hint to do that more than as an indication of the devs trolling us.

The Fish Boon Feast fish also have a merchant icon even though they aren't worth anything.

Fixed it for you. Working as intended.
