That apron would only feed 45 people per day; you'd need about 4500 copies to feed the whole city. That would cost a total of more than 7 million gold pieces (if my math is right). Using heroes' feast would be even worse, because the spell level is higher but it feeds fewer people per casting. You would need more than six thousand copies of the item, at a total cost of 427 million gold.It's true that a hypothetical create food item with no use limit could offer a solution. It would theoretically cost 27k, and activating it for seven hours nonstop could generate food for the whole city. But that's only if the DM allows arbitrary magic items, and (unwisely) goes strictly by the price guidelines in the DMG. I don't know anybody who actually plays that way.</blockquote>
