Wasted components in recipes with alternatives

[LetterShapedGlyphs]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When Meat Soup only cares that you put some type of meat in it, but you run out of "Canned Chicken" partway through by "wasting a component"; the inability to substitute any other valid meat item, or at the very least get the broth back, is extremely frustrating.

Describe the solution you'd like

If a line in a recipe accepts multiple "equivalent" components, it should be possible to substitute one of those to continue crafting.

Describe alternatives you've considered

The ability to abort an in-progress craft to reclaim at least some of the involved components.

Additional context

When you burn the chicken you were going to put in your scrambled eggs, you don't just throw the eggs away because "you only have bacon left".

Just like those uncooked TV dinners that you accidentally ate one of when you hit '3' along with 'e'. But that's a separate issue.
