Subject: [PATCH] Tweaking what produce boxes can spawn (#22048)

Updates produce boxes to better reflect what's needed from them to make
common foods, upping the spawn rates of some things (such as chilis),
lowering the spawn rate of others (such as white-beets) and adding new
produce for it to spawn (such as lemons)
as well as a few rarely-spawning items for some less-common foods such
as berries and chickpeas, but with low-enough spawn rates that they
won't remove the kitchen's dependency on cargo and botany.
(Also fixes a small typo in Caramelized steak bites while i'm at it)
